Even now, Makoto Saito is intoxicated with Jean-Michel Basquiat and Andy Warhol. They pursued "blue flame" within themselves and their artworks, and passed away as if the flame burned itself out. Saito is originally a graphic designer and now turned to be a fine artist of the time. He has quickly drawn the attention of the contemporary art world. By now a number of international reputable art collectors compete with each other in acquiring his artworks. This exhibition features a Saito's brand new work; a homage to Basquiat and Warhol, along with these two artists' masterpieces. Hopefully, Saito's great passion for them is well-received.
