== Summary == *Kazuo Shiraga is widely celebrated for his unique method of swinging from a rope while painting visually striking abstractions with his feet, and was one of the founders of the influential Gutai art movement in Japan. * The Painting is an excellent example from Kazuo Shiraga’s seminal body of work, the “Water Margin” series, and created in the artist’s unique physical style. * Works from the “Water Margin” series rank among the artist’s most valuable and account for six of his top ten auction records. Top auction sales from the series are led by Tentaisei Soushiko (1960) which sold for $8,638,167 in December 2019 and Keishizoku (1961) which sold for $3,973,000 in November 2013. * Shiraga’s top auction record is $10,285,492 for Takao (1959), which sold in June 2018. Early works from the Gutai period (1954-1972) such as Takao are most notable in the artist’s oeuvre. * The artist was a central figure in “Gutai: Splendid Playground,” the Guggenheim Museum’s 2013 exhibition on the Gutai movement. * Although there are no guarantees, similar works have appreciated at 24.2% annualized historically from 2003 to 2020.
