拍品专文

“We should rediscover art that exists in what we think of as subculture. It’s strong and real anywhere you bring it because it’s directly born of the everyday folks [minshu] rather than of tradition, and related to their everyday life” (Y. Nara, quoted in M. Chiu and M. Tezuka, Yoshimoto Nara: Nobody’s Fool, exh. cat., Asia Society Museum, New York, 9 September 2010-2 January 2011, p. 22).
