Suehiro Maruo came to France recently and made interviews ! Someone asked him about his european influences…
French : On ressent dans vos œuvres, notamment dans “L’Enfer en bouteille”, une forte influence de la peinture occidentale, que cela soit le surréalisme (Dalí, Ernst…), la Renaissance italienne ou encore l’art décadent du XIXe siècle. Allez-vous profiter de votre séjour en France pour voir des tableaux de vos peintres favoris ?
Je suis effectivement fortement influencé par l’art occidental, d’une manière générale. J’aimerais vraiment voir des originaux de Balthus, je n’en ai jamais vu en vrai.
Translation (sorry for the mistakes) : “We feel in your works, especially in Binzume no Jigoku, a strong influence of Western painting, whether Surrealism (Dalí, Ernst …), the Italian Renaissance or the decadent art of the nineteenth century. Will you enjoy your stay in France to see pictures of your favorite painters?
I actually heavily influenced by Western art in general. I’d really like to see the original Balthus, I’ve never seen in real life.”
