Shiraga Kazuo

Shiraga Kazuo (b. 1924), Work
1962, oil on canvas, 116.4 x 80cm

Hailing from Shiraga Kazuo’s critical early period of explosive dynamism, this stunning masterpiece heaves and writhes with fiery turbulence, exuding potent, visceral ferocity. Claw-like lacerations of red, orange and deep burgundy converge at thrilling points of intersection, accented by masterful finishing swipes of electric cobalt. The young Gutai master’s legendary feet-generated strokes thrash out a path of primal expression via impassioned collisions of body and paint.
