Intense Painting

.


Kazuo Shiraga gets pretty physical with his paint. He'll even swing from a rope so he can paint with his feet.
The top image is from Artnet's coverage of the June, Modern & Contemporary Mallet Japan Auction and it sold for $11,218.
He's represented by, and you'll find some interesting images of his work at Annely Juda Fine Art. Just click on Gallery Artists and then his name.

.
This sweet little number by Kazuo will be coming up at auction; Christie's Rome: Tuesday, November 24, 2009 [Lot 140]Contemporary and Modern Art.
I make a habit of keeping up with the art auctions on Artnet - whether I'm perusing the catelogues of Upcoming Auctions or checking out what sold for what on their Recent Auction Results. It's quite an education !
