Eiko Ishioka was born on July 12, 1938 in Tokyo, Japan and attended the Tokyo National
University of Fine Arts and Music, studying in the Design Department of the Faculty of Fine
Arts. She graduated in 1961, and started her career designing advertising campaigns for the
Japanese cosmetics giant Shiseido. In 1970, Ishioka founded her own design firm and soon
diversified her work by adding books and journals (especially those published by Kadokawa
Books), magazine articles, record album covers, and product packaging to her repertoire, as
well as serving as stage director of several Issey Miyake fashion shows. Her firm also
created numerous advertising campaigns for major clients such as the department store chain
Parco throughout the 1970s.
Ishioka soon branched out into the performing arts, and she spent the last several decades
of her career mainly designing costumes and/or sets for theater, film, opera, and individual
performers. Some of her major stage credits include the Broadway productions
M. Butterfly (1988) and
David Copperfield's
Dreams & Nightmares
(1996); the Nederlander Opera's
The
Ring of Nibelung
(1997-1998); Cirque du Soleil's
Varekai (2002); and singer Grace Jones'
Hurricane
tour (2009). Film credits include production work for Paul Schrader's
Mishima: A Life in Four Chapters (1985) and costumes designed for a number of
Tarsem (Tarsem Singh) films, as well as for Francis Ford Coppola's
Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992), which garnered her an Oscar. In addition, Ishioka
curated exhibitions, especially the photography exhibitions
Nuba (1980) and
Life (1992) regarding the work of
German filmmaker and photographer Leni Riefenstahl, and she contributed to the multi-media
art installation
Tokyo: Form & Spirit (1986). She also
designed sports uniforms for the NBA and Olympic athletes. Along with these various
endeavors, Ishioka continued with advertising work, and with book and record cover design,
including the Grammy-winning cover of Miles Davis'
Tutu
(1986). She compiled and designed two books that focused on her career:
Eiko by Eiko (1983) and
Eiko on
Stage
(2000).
Eiko Ishioka was married to Nico Soultanakis. She died on January 21, 2012, in Tokyo,
Japan.
Material in the Eiko Ishioka papers relates to nearly every aspect of the designer's
multi-faceted career. Her work in the performing arts is documented through costume drawings
and sketches, set design drawings, research material, production records and photographs,
fabric samples, and audiovisual material for numerous stage projects, especially the
Broadway productions
M. Butterfly (1988) and
David Copperfield: Dreams & Nightmares (1996), the operas
Chushingura (1997) and
The Ring of
the Nibelung
(1997-1998), and Cirque du Soleil's
Varekai
(2002). Although this collection holds little material relating to her work in
film, it does contain original costume design drawings and sketches for
Bram Stoker's Dracula (1992), as well as several posters designed
by Ishioka for the Japanese releases of that film,
Apocalypse
Now
, and others. In addition, the collection documents other varied projects
including the curation of exhibitions dedicated to the life and work of Leni Riefenstahl,
Nuba (1980) and
Life (1992);
posters designed for inclusion in or as advertising for numerous exhibitions; and several
collaborations with fashion designer Issey Miyake in the 1970s.
This collection also documents Ishioka's design of books, particularly
Eiko by Eiko (1983); journals, including
Wild Times, and magazine articles; record album covers, especially Miles Davis'
Tutu; and products and packaging, through production
material such as photographs, drawings, layouts, and proofs, as well as final products. A
small amount of material pertains to her work designing athletic uniforms, especially for
the Houston Rockets NBA team.
Ishioka's decades-long career in advertising is well-represented in this collection through
numerous posters, photographs, slides, transparencies, digital, and audiovisual items,
primarily for campaigns designed for the Japanese companies Shiseido, Parco, Kadokawa Books,
Diana shoes, Kissa, Tokyu, Sanyo Fashion House, and others from the 1960s-1980s.
The collection contains numerous items created while Ishioka was a student at the Tokyo
National University of Fine Arts and Music, including artwork (drawings, sketches,
paintings) and production material pertaining to design projects, as well as snapshots of
various excursions and activities during this time period. In addition, material documenting
her overall career through photographs, portfolios, awards, publicity, and art supplies, is
also present. Finally, the collection contains Ishioka's voluminous library of art, design,
and other books.
