Description:Ironically, Kazuo Shiraga’s feet were nearly his feet of clay. The breakout star of the Gutai Art Association, Shiraga became colloquially known as the “foot painter”; the Japanese postwar movement’s founder, Jiro Yoshihara, even dismissed Shiraga as a “nobody, if he didn’t paint with his feet.” After his 1955 performance “Challenging Mud,” in which the artist wrestled a mixture of cement, gravel, clay, plaster, pebbles and twigs into a “formless form,” Shiraga devised an entirely new painting technique. From 1959 onward, he suspended himself from his studio ceiling and manipulated the paint exclusively with his ten toes to create a range of textures from the slinky and supple to the protruding and violent. Almost 60 years later, Shiraga, whose dynamic contributions blend painting and performance, is still a misunderstood radical who is only now receiving the sort of American institutional and gallery attention that properly contextualizes the depth and reach of his practice.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
