Cutie and the Boxer Page #2
he needs for his day's work.
At the moment, he is preparing
a new sculpture
using great amounts
of cardboard
while his wife, Noriko,
works on her own paintings.
As a young man in Tokyo,
he emerged as a leader
in Japan's
avant-garde art movement
with his imitation
of American pop art
and action painting.
The quality
of Ushio Shinohara's art
is, to say the least,
in some doubt,
but it does illustrate
of rebellion
among some young people--
and not only in Japan,
throughout the world.
When he arrived
in the United States,
he was at once in the limelight
of the mass media.
It is said Shinohara
is the most famous
of the poor and struggling
artists in New York.
While his works
American collectors often say,
"That's a wonderful image
but not my taste,"
so most of Shinohara's pieces
have never sold.
What do you think of my opening?
It hasn't even started yet.
I'm nervous.
- Like, "Will they sell?"
- You don't sell at an opening.
You never know.
I'm tired.
- Why
- Huh?
- I'm tired from preparing for today.
- I'm not tired at all.
Of course, this is your event.
It's not my show,
so I just get frustrated.
Come on, give me a break.
Really, what's most important
is that moment when he created
the painting.
This is a result,
but--and a beautiful result--
but also it's the action,
so that's where--
the energy is in there.
- You've met Ushio.
- Nice to meet you again.
Pleasure seeing you.
This is wonderful.
And he also made this
extraordinary new sculpture.
This is my main work.
- It gets very good mileage.
- Yeah, I'm sure.
I've been doing this for such a long
time. I usually start off with an image.
Oh, I see.
So this is eventually what
I came up with.
So you put some foam
on the top of it, right?
Yeah. I close my eyes and
hit right to left.
Just one minute. That's all.
- In one minute?
- No, no. Two and a half minutes.
Two and a half!
When I was young
I was obsessed by my ideals
and art was my first priority.
Art was Ushio's priority too.
When it came to that,
we completely agreed.
I'd never known anyone in my life
who was so open-hearted.
I began to love him.
I was so filled with inspiration.
I was never worried about the future.
Hello?
Hi, Ethan.
I'm fine. I'm fine.
Ethan, what's up?
Listen, I have small, very, very
charming, two motorcycles for you.
Hold on, please. Noriko is coming...
Noriko!
It's Ethan.
Hold on, please.
She's coming soon.
Hi.
Good morning.
Fine, thank you.
Mm-hmm.
Okay, bye.
Gyu-chan...
Alexandra from the Guggenheim Museum
wants to see a boxing painting.
She wants to come
