Atsuko Tanaka, born on November 14,1962 in Gunma is a seiyū (voice actor) who works for Mausu Promotion.

Atsuko Tanaka (1932-2005) was a pioneering Japanese avant-garde artist.

Born in Osaka, she studied at the Art Institute of Osaka Municipal Museum of Art in 1950 and, from 1951 on, at the Department of Western Painting at Kyoto Municipal College of Art (now Kyoto City University of Arts). In 1955, she joined the Gutai group, an avant-garde artists' movement, to which she belonged until her marriage with Akira Kanayama in 1965.

Tanaka's works, which include abstract paintings, sculptures, performances and installations, generally feature objects from everyday life: textiles, door bells, light bulbs and the like. Her best-known work is Electric Dress (1956), a burqa-like costume consisting of electrical wires and lit-up coloured lightbulbs. Tanaka wore the dress to exhibitions.

In the 2000s, Tanaka's works were featured in numerous expositions in Japan and abroad, including at the Kyoto National Museum of Modern Art, the Nagoya Gallery HAM, the New York Grey Art Gallery and Paula Cooper Gallery as well as at the Innsbruck Galerie im Taxispalais. In 2005, the University of British Columbia's Morris and Helen Belkin Art Gallery in Vancouver mounted a major exhibition of Tanaka's work entitled "Electrifying art : Atsuko Tanaka, 1954-1968". Electric Dress and other works were on display at the 2007 documenta 12 in Kassel.

Atsuko Tanaka's work is included in a number of internationally important public collections, including that of New York's Museum of Modern Art (MOMA). MOMA's online collection (see external links) features a large, untitled 1964 Tanaka work (synthetic polymer paint on canvas). Nearly 12 feet tall and over 7 feet wide, this piece, according to MOMA's online description, "evolved from Tanaka's performance Electric Dress", and "vividly records the artist's gestural application of layers and skeins of multicolored acrylic paint on the canvas as it lay on the floor." http://www.moma.org/collection/browse_results.php?criteria=O%3ATA%3AE%3Aex4502%7CA%3ATA%3AE%3Aex4502&page_number=5&template_id=1&sort_order=1
