Me & Art: Japanese Pop & Modern Art

Me and Art is an introduction to 29 contemporary Japanese artists and a comprehensive catalogue their respective works. Altogether this volume introduces a total of 166 individual artworks. Each of the artists featured in this volume is a Japanese national currently residing and working in Japan, be they painter, illustrators, graphic artists or other art-makers. Although based predominantly in Japan, a great number of the featured artists have previously exhibited on an international level, in solo and group exhibitions at a number of locations across America, Europe and Oceania. The title of this book is "Me and Art". But what does that actually mean? As it suggests, this book features art pieces that personally represent each of the artists introduced. The phrase "Me and Art" is, at the very least, a point of view from these artists. For them, this is their individual expression of art. For them, this is "MY ART".
