By: Kit Brooks | Illustrator:  Ay-O   
This kaleidoscopic catalog, and first book in English dedicated to Ay-Ō, celebrates the avant-garde artist’s first major museum exhibition in the United States

Known as the “Rainbow Artist” for the prominent bright motif in his work, Ay-Ō has long referred to this compulsion as his “rainbow hell.” Ay-Ō Happy Rainbow Hell invites readers into the vibrant world of his brilliant art, mind, and imagination, featuring artwork from the first major US museum exhibition devoted to his work.

Printed on heavy 100# paper and in 7 colors (with added green, orange, and metallic gold inks, plus 2 spot colors and spot varnish) to achieve Ay-Ō’s vibrant color palette, the book is its own stunning art object. The dustjacket, printed and silkscreened on uncoated, felted art board, is die-cut to reveal the rainbow-printed caseside. Ay-Ō Happy Rainbow Hell presents approximately 140 gorgeous illustrations from the Smithsonian’s Arthur M. Sackler Gallery, home to the largest US collection of Ay-Ō’s silkscreen prints, and loans from other US institutions along with enlightening catalog entries to better appreciate each piece. Additionally, the book includes:

  • An essay from Kit Brooks, the Japan Foundation Assistant Curator of Japanese Art, that provides a biography of Ay-Ō; explores the artist’s fluctuating explanations for his rainbow fixation and its simultaneous liberation and restriction; and emphasizes his legacy as an eminent member of Fluxus, an experimental art group in the 1960s and 1970s.
  • An illustrated essay from Ay-Ō’s longtime printer Sukeda Kenryō, where he describes his painstaking work to translate the artist’s designs onto prismatic silkscreen prints, work that can take up to a year to accomplish.
  • A message from the artist Ay-Ō himself.

Ay-Ō Happy Rainbow Hell is a colorful and comprehensive book that pays tribute to an extraordinary career and legacy as luminous as the art itself.

Size matters
Color: Derrick Dark Brown, Size: One Size
The quality of the wallet is fine, but the size… it’s way to big to fit in a man’s pocket easily. I should’ve done a better job reading the measurements, but dang!

Nice looking wallet with two currency pockets and plenty of room for credit cards, etc.
Color: Derrick Dark Brown, Size: One Size
This is a truly great looking wallet. I have carried a "man-purse" (for lack of a better term) for years and have always carried a normal bi-fold wallet in it. There is room for this larger wallet, so I decided to give this one a try. So glad I did. I like the way it looks, love the RFID ability and enjoy the easy access to all credit and ID cards I need to carry. Some of the credit card slots are initially very, very tight, but I'm sure they will become easier to access with time and use. Because they are so tight now, I am aslo quite sure they will stay tight enough to hold cards securely after much usage. This is larger than the traditional style of men's wallet, so please be aware of that if you decide to buy one.

Stunning automatic watch — looks way more expensive than it is
Color: All Gold, Color: All Gold
I bought this OLEVS automatic as a gift for my husband and he was thrilled. The gold-tone finish is rich and consistent, the open-heart dial showing the movement is a beautiful touch, and the day/week sub-dials work smoothly. The caseback shows the automatic movement clearly — you can see the rotor spinning with every wrist movement. It feels comfortable and the bracelet is solid. For the price, this is an outstanding piece. He gets compliments every time he wears it.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
