クリスティーズさんのインスタグラム写真 - (クリスティーズInstagram)「Yoshitomo Nara's 'Agent Orange' is emblematic of the artist's signature style: child-like figures rendered in a range of hyperbolised expressions against nondescript backgrounds. . This painting will feature as a leading lot in the Modern and Contemporary Art Evening Sale in Hong Kong on 2 December.⠀ .⠀ Nara's versatile practice explores themes of the individual, isolation and spirituality. The figure depicted in the present work is suspended in a pool of water, a recurring iconographic motif in Nara's work that represents the complexity and vulnerability of childhood. The playful, mischievous expression of the figure is rarely seen in the artist's oeuvre.⠀ .⠀⠀ 'Where is this place, how did I come to be here, looking around the restrictive shallows, the light from the sun glitters on the water's surface', wrote the artist in his poem 'Deep Deep Water Puddle'.⠀ .⠀ Yoshitomo Nara (B. 1959), ‘Agent Orange (In the Milky Lake)’, 2009. Estimate: HK$50,000,000 – 70,000,000, US$6,500,000 - 9,000,000. ⠀ .⠀⠀ Modern and Contemporary Art Evening Sale — 2 December, Hong Kong.⠀ .⠀⠀⠀ #yoshitomonara #painting #modernart #contemporaryart #japaneseartist @christiesasia」10月6日 11時51分
