I received tonight the sad news of the passing of the great Master of Illusion and great friend: Shigeo Fukuda. It happened suddenly. He was 76.
Dear friends, don't worry about him: Shigeo Fukuda is not dead. Only those can believe such nonsense who do not know his posters. Look at them again! The top is bottom, the outside is inside, the plane becomes space and the past future... Death? Come on! He is so much more alive: more perfectly than ever. In all our hearts...
