Note du spécialiste

'What I do is not so much abstract, but wanting to get at the root of primitive. […] The boards I paint, I sometimes think, are not pictures or works. I don’t want them to be paintings. I’m simply making movements to make sure I can do something. The multicoloured paint becomes simplified and colourless, then the colour of one’s body.' – Takeo Yamaguchi
