I was just wandering around the "Art:21" site and found this new interview with Philadelphia artist, educator, and curator, Hiro Sakaguchi:


Occupying Multiple Scales at Once: An Interview with Hiro Sakaguchi

  1. Hiro was one of the few people
    that I got along with at UARTS,
    and then after graduation I
    enjoyed bumping into him around
    town. I don't maintain any
    friendships very well consid-
    ering the peripheral components
    of my mental health condition
    so I have not been able to
    really get deeper in relation-
    ship with any artist in Philly.

    His work is not avant garde or
    edgy but it is fresh enough
    that it deserves to be seen,
    not to mention just being good
    as an ,"art object".

    Like yourself he seems to be
    an ,"honest painter", who is
    not messing around, or trying
    to be famous.

    There are some people who will
    paint even if no one notices.

    That is the sign of a real
    artist...IMHO.
