Hidetoshi Nagasawa was born in Manchuria on the 30th of October 1940 (his parents were Japanese and had moved there because of his father’s work; he was an army doctor). During World War Two, the Soviet Union’s attack meant that they had to flee to Japan, to near Tokyo. In these difficult years, tainted by the war, Nagasawa went to secondary school where he learned about contemporary art, opening up to contemporary groups (Neo-Dada) and discovered the activities of the Gutai group…
Nagasawa Hidetoshi nacque a Tonei, in Manciuria, nel 1940. Alla fine della guerra, dovette fuggire in Giappone, attraversando il mare in barca, un viaggio molto pericoloso che segnerà il suo destino e ispirerà un buona parte della sua produzione artistica, attraverso il tema della barca…(with images of works)

James Rosenquist. Painting Below Zero: Notes on a Life in Art.
“Frank, funny, truthful, ironic and in every way an entertaining account of one major American artist’s involvement in an art movement that interests everyone–and, more than that, of his own character.
