Gutai: 1953-1959 coincides with the release of three new documentary films produced by Documentary Japan for Fergus McCaffrey. Exploring the lives and work of Sadamasa Motonaga, Kazuo Shiraga, and Toshio Yoshida, the videos feature interviews with the artists’ families, friends, and curators, and provide insights into the personalities and creative impulses of these avant-garde pioneers.
