Masae ITOH: She Has Mountain
Editor's Note

The screen throbs vividly whenever the movement of an active, fluid brush is chased by eyes. It is an energetic painting that can be said, only "we confront it". Ito has produced paintings filled with lights with a flower as the motif up to now. In contrast to them, this latest work is assumed to take a person as the model and to have less light in it. However, the movement of Ito's brush seems to move mightily by even the sign and air including the sense of distance with the model even without recollecting Giacometti's drawing of a person; to diffused more throb target over the image and shape in which even the person in the painting has no meaning on the transformed screen. Ito might be a rarely powerful artist in this era.
