Experimental Japanese Animator Yoji Kuri


Yoji Kuri, born in Japan in 1928, is a cartoonist and independent filmmaker who gave birth to a modern-styled, independently made, adult-aimed animation in early 1960 Japan.  He is considered part of the first wave of experimental animators. His work involves dark comedy using farce and morbid humor. He works in a multitude of styles, but generally his animations are surreal, erotic, witty and strangely disturbing.
