Yoji Kuri

The Room

The pioneer of experimental Japanese animation, Yoji Kuri, opens up a surreal space in THE ROOM (1967). In his typical minimalist cartoon style, Kuri combines harmless and morbid motifs: birdsong, locomotive noises, severed body parts and confused mumbling are playfully linked with questions of seclusion and expansion. THE ROOM was shown in Oberhausen in 1968.
