“John Currin Prints" exhibition”

From October 5 (Sat.) to November 10 (Sun.), 2019, Gallery KIDO Press is going to hold an exhibition titled "John Currin" who resides in New York.
John Currin is known for his portraits that challenge sexual taboos and stir controversy in contemporary society. He has a thorough knowledge of the history of painting spanning many centuries and applies techniques distinctive to classical painting in a manner that is apparently aimed at deftly updating it. Pursuing the perfect balance between the beautiful and the grotesque, Currin has strategically continued to produce representational oil paintings as a contemporary artist. In the process, he has emerged as one of America's leading painters whom any discussion today of contemporary art cannot afford to ignore.
