Youtarou Hino / Shayne Bowden

2005.06.25(sat)

After exhibiting at tetra in 2004, painter Hino Youtarou expressed interest in participating in the 'one against' series. He did so on June 25th 2005 painting live before a crowd of about 40 people. For about an hour and a half Hino painted about 10 panels on a 1st floor wall while tetra member Shayne Bowden produced sound from cassette field recordings.
Hino continued work on the paintings throughout the next day.
This event received both praise and criticism from those in attendance. While some were impressed by Hino's work and the spectacle of the creation of an artwork, others expressed dissapointment that Hino had compromised quality and integrity for the sake of a show/performance.
