Shinganist - StolenSpace - 23rd July - 9th August, by Daniel Silk on Jul 22, 2009 14:48:45 GMT 1, 
'SHINGANIST' Curated By Usugrow
23.07.09 - 09.08.09
In anticipation of the imminent release of his new book "Shinganist," Usugrow has rallied the bookโs contributors to action for this show at StolenSpace. Together, these five Japanese artists will be taking over the walls of the Gallery with stunning new works on canvas, paper, wood and felt. โShinganistโ is an intriguing look into the work of some of Japanโs up-and-coming young artists. Straddling the fine line of street art, skate and tattoo culture, while simultaneously drawing inspiration from centuries of traditional Japanese imagery, True to the meaning behind โShinganโ - those who create based on visions spurred by the mindโs eye and those who are not affected by the opinions and expectations placed on them by the outside world - USUGROW, MOZYSKEY, TOSHIKAZU NOZAKA, BENE and JUN KANEKO are driven by the pure passion to create.
The work being presented is a testament to those who live life for the love of art. From body art to street art, these young men have explored every aspect of the creative world. They have fought passionately for the right to express what the mindโs eye has shown them and have succeeded at every turn. Encumbered by the weight of societal expectations, they defy the prescribed life path and valiantly pursue the life of the โShinganist.โ Bringing us art born from passion, a harmonious blend of various cultureโs aspects absorbed over time that still reflects a style inherent to Japan, this show will be one of a kind.
To accompany this show will be the release of a limited edition screen print by Usugrow as well as signed copies of the book โShinganistโ
