Ai YAMAGUCHI
Japanese 1977
Yamaguchi was bron in 1977. Since participating in the Hiropon Show in LA (1998), Yamaguchi has participated in number of group exhibitions both at home and abroad. These include Tokyo Girls Bravo held in Harajuku Nadiff, Tokyo, Japan; Officina Asia held at Galleria d'Arte Moderna in Bologna, Italy in 2004 as well as various other exhibitions which have been held in venues throughot Japan and the USA. Selected solo exhibitions including "Kamuro" held in Kanazawa, Japan in 2000; Sukutoko at Roberts & Tilton in LA and "Oyasumi" at Shaheen Contemporary in Cleveland, USA in 2003 and 2004 respectively. Ai Yamaguchi's works are truly timeless; they draw on both classical Japanese themes and contemporary styles. The artist's first American gallery show, "Sukutoko" (Roberts & Tiltion, LA, 2003) was an instant sellout and earned her work reviews in Art in America and the cover of Giant Robot Magazine.
