Tokio (Japan), 1966
Japanese-born Hisashi Tenmyouya is one of most talented young Asian artists in the international art world. His pictures are a skilled blend of traditional Japanese motifs and elements of modern Japan. Tenmyouya's contribution to the FIFA series achieves martial-arts and theatrical effects, presenting the game of football as a battle between warring antagonists. The work has been executed in the traditional Ukiyo-e style.
