MORE ABOUT THE ARTIST and the Exhibition:
Yoshitaka Amano: Monochrome & DEVA LOKA USA
A native of Shizuoka City, Japan, Yoshitaka Amano is best known for his character design for Final Fantasy video games and numerous Japanese hit TV cartoon series that sparked the imagination of youth in Japan and inspired a whole generation of artists who grew up watching his bold illustrations come to life. At the young age of fifteen, he started working as a character developer at Tatsunoko Productions and fifteen years later he left and became a freelance illustrator as well as an exhibiting artist.
For this U.S. exhibition, Amano has donated three new brush works on canvas “Monochrome I, II, & III” to be auctioned off on exhibition’s closing day for the tsunami and earthquake victims of Japan. (100% of the proceeds will be received by the Northern Japan Earthquake Relief Fund.) The three pieces combined with his DEVA LOKA* USA, a series of paintings Amano prepared as an ode to influences of 60’s and 70’s American pop culture, will be exhibited in this show.
*Deva Loka is an ancient Indian land of God, and is the theme that he has been able to unite all of his years of work under.
