Katsumi Asaba is an artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

Katsumi Asaba’s bold posters from the 1980s blend Japanese stage art with Western graphic punch. Notice how the 1981 Kyogen poster uses flat color and sharp lines to spotlight the masked faces of this classic comic theater, all in a single glance. If you like the sharp contrast and theatrical flair, tap into the same playful energy with Asaba’s other 1980s posters.
