Gajin Fujita’s Defiant Acts | Frieze Los Angeles

“Only in LA would I have been able to paint and make work like this.”
Artist Gajin Fujita's paintings incorporate graffiti language, traditional iconography drawn from Edo-period Japanese woodblock prints, and symbols that murmur insider’s references to West Coast culture. Here, he discusses growing up in Boyle Heights, living and working in Los Angeles, and being fascinated by the myths of Ukiyo-e.
Produced by Frieze Studios to accompany L.A. Louver's solo presentation of Fujita's work at Frieze Los Angeles in 2019.
