Provenance: Galerie Perrotin, Hong Kong

Exhibited: September 14 - October 20, 2018 "PEOPLE MISUNDERSTAND ME AND THE CONTENTS OF MY PAINTINGS. THEY JUST THINK THEY ARE NOSTALGIC, CUTE, AND LOOK LIKE JAPANESE ANIME. THAT MAY BE TRUE, BUT REALLY, I PAINT DAILY IN ORDER TO ESCAPE THE DEVIL THAT HAUNTS MY SOUL. THE SAID DEVIL ALSO RESIDES IN MY BLOOD, AND I CANNOT ESCAPE FROM IT NO MATTER HOW I WISH. SO I PAINT IN RESIGNATION." Galerie Perrotin, Hong Kong

Condition: Good condition. There are creases in upper right corner. There are scuff marks and stains by drawing material that are thought to be original condition. The verso is not examined out of the frame since it is mounted on the mat.
