Description«This masterpiece for a company selling Buddhist house altars by Makoto Saito served as a guiding light through my art-school years, its unusual composition and color being an early example for me how newness in the right context can also immediately be seen as beautiful. I visited Makoto recently in his studio in Tokyo; he has given up on graphic design and has managed to become a rather successful artist.»
