About the Item

Ryoko Endo was born into a traditional family in Fukushima, Japan and attended a Catholic mission school. As a child, her mother encouraged her to wear a glove on her dominant left hand so that she would learn to use her right- as it was thought that left-handed children brought shame onto a family. Because of this experience, she can equally paint with both hands. Endo studied graphic design and typography at Musashino Art University in Tokyo. In 1994, she moved to New York City and began attending classes the Art Students League. One of her instructors, Kikuo Saito, inspired her to create colorful abstract paintings, which continues to be her focus today. Ryoko Endo’s paintings explore the union between color and movement. She pursues the possibilities of various color combinations, which convey emotion. Movement is also important—the way she moves each element empowers her paintings. Shapes dissolve and become meaningless and brushstrokes vary according to speed, thickness, density, and rhythm.
