Discover masterworks by Japanese artist Kazuo Shiraga @operagallery. Shiraga's art reflects a desire to merge body and matter, medium and artistic gesture. By laying the canvas directly on the ground and using his feet to spread thick layers of paint that formed stunning impastos, Shiraga induced a new relationship to the work. "I wanted to paint as if it was a fight. Until I fell down from exhaustion", he once said.
