Hiro Kurata

I have felt like it is difficult to stay excited with the core of young artists out there. Hiro Kurata is one of the few young painters who has really captured my interest lately. There is something about this guy's work that intrigues me and draws me in. Kurata was born in Osaka Japan, educated at Parsons School of Design, and has shown at prestigious galleries such as Joshua Liner Gallery and the Richard Heller Gallery in the past few years. His work really needs to be seen in person to fully appreciate. This is a piece I purchased last year. Spend some time checking out his work online at his website shiloku.com. I am excited to see how his work progresses over the next 5 years.
