As a painter, Sakurai Hajime has been attracting attention both in Japan and abroad and is one of the most exciting artists to follow in the art world. He has a deep knowledge of vintage cultures such as music, fashion, and movies, and his works are filled with the music of the 1960s and flavors of that era, and he is enthusiastic about creating pop and cute works. His work is characterized by his method of reproducing digitally drawn artwork into analog form. His excellent brush skills, stylish composition, and sense of expression have attracted a wide range of people, from young people to art collectors.
His catchy and fashionable style has attracted many clients for commission work, and he has been active in a wide range of fields, including large-scale fashion commercial facilities, music festivals, fashion brands, food packaging, and the album jacket of Nona Reeves, a musician who is close to him in both public and private life.
The theme of his Osaka solo exhibition "Hip & Square", his first in three and a half years, is based on his motto of "square exploration and hip performance", and is a return to his roots of combining his beloved music and art. This exhibition will feature new works of previously unseen size (F50), as well as large-scale works. Please enjoy the fun and exciting world of Hajime in this exhibition!
