The artist of provocation, Tetsumi Kudo was part of the emerging Anti-Art sentiment during the late 1950s to the early 1960s in Japan. Although educated at the prestigious Tokyo University of the Arts, Kudo’s unbridled experimentalism led him to incorporate a broad range of unconventional materials into his sculptures and installations. Often charged with socio-political critique and tabooed sexual connotations, his work pushed the limit of postwar Japanese art to a new level of imagination.
