Acrylic on Canvas 46.5”x 36.5” With sense of humor and frivolity, Japanese painter Kenji Inoue creates dynamic acrylics on canvas by incorporating the powerful imagery, energy, and spirit of manga and anime. Playfully rendered in a childlike style, Inoue’s paintings are wildly gestural, confrontational, and magnetic. Giving us Pop art with a distinctly Japanese flair, Inoue’s work is intriguing for his unusual use of visual contradictions. While his paintings posses a certain level of kitsch and low brow subject matter, Inoue raises his works to the level of high art through his choice of materials and sophisticated spatial arrangements. Utilizing bold gestural strokes, swirling lines, and vivid, artificial colors, Inoue calls forth a sonic energy and elicits a sense of excitement from the viewer. In an engaging, television style manner, Inoue transfixes the viewer with an exploding moment of action, perplexing him with an unresolved cliffhanger. Educated in Fine Art and Illustration, Kenji Inoue currently develops his take on Pop Art in his native Japan.

Judith Barath is an artist of astounding ability. Her work with both traditional and digital artistic media displays the depth and versatility of her incredible talents. What is particularly amazing about her body of work is the quality of emotion that she culls from such disparate elements as flowers and female figures, both creating a meditative realm of calm and beauty. “The attractive, sensual figures in my work reveal my personal understanding of the connection between man and woman and the continuous, infinite struggle to find harmony in life,” the artist explains. Influenced early on by the infamous flowers of Van Gogh and the feminine grace of Botticelli’s masterworks, Barath has absorbed these early inspirations to create an original style of expression to share with contemporary audiences. Her works in oil paint are sensual and verdant, as a maze of floral tapestries unfold in front of the viewer, their delicate petals exploding in a frenzy of color. The same sensitivity is applied to Barath’s digital works, where she employs powerful programs like Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop to create a range of stunning effects. The resulting artwork is hypnotic and surreal, employing layer upon layer of imagery that includes airy fabrics, flora and atmospheric conditions and usually features a central female figure or animal. Her figures often seem lost in an existential reverie, expressing joy or anguish through their provocative or enigmatic poses. These women also imbue her work with a strong sense of drama, as if events or memories from outside the picture plane are acting upon the protagonists before our very eyes. JUDITH BARATH Judith in her Studio This approach allows viewers to interact with each piece, exploring the visual cornucopia to comprehend the often-illusive themes. Barath earned her degree from the University of Design and Graphic Arts in Budapest, Hungary. She has worked as an illustrator and designer of children’s books, album covers, movie posters and corporate collateral. Her artwork has been exhibited in such far-flung cities as London, Buenos Aires, Florence and Los Angeles. Barath resides in Oak Brook, Illinois.
