Today's book by Hiroshi Fujiwara "ROBERT OVERBY WORKS 1969-1987"

 

American visual artist Robert Overby (Robert Oberby 1935–93) became a visual artist after working as a graphic artist. He has produced a wide variety of multifaceted works, including sculptures, installations, paintings, photographs, prints, and collages. The TOYOTA logo was designed by him in the graphic era and is still in use. However, it is said to be a hidden talent of postwar American art because it exhibited almost no exhibits throughout its life.
