[Signed] "Neutre" Yuichi Yokoyama

Title: "Neutre"
Author: Yuichi Yokoyama
Size: 24.0 x 17.2 x 1.0 cm

Yuichi Yokoyama has become known in France through the numerous works he has translated and published through Éditions Matière.
The term "neo manga," which he himself uses to refer to his own works, aptly indicates that his works belong to a new genre, while still following traditional formal codes.

Although it includes two previously unpublished graphic stories, Neutre is primarily a collection of paintings, drawings and colorful collages that offer a glimpse into a lesser known side of his work.

The colorful works collected here stand in stark contrast to the tumultuousness of his manga: quiet, delicate images, pop collages that emerge from the chaos, geometric forms juxtaposed against neutral backgrounds - a world of expression distinct from his neo-manga.
