Hiro Yamagata Art

Japanese, b. 1948
Hiro Yamagata, born in 1948 in Maibara, Japan, is a contemporary artist known for his vibrant and intricate works. He studied at L’Ecole des Beaux Arts in Tokyo and moved to Los Angeles in 1978, where his style was influenced by various cultures and artistic movements. Yamagata’s art features bright colors, detailed compositions, and a blend of pop art with traditional Japanese influences. His themes often include motion, energy, and the celebration of life. In the 1980s, Yamagata began collaborating with Martin Lawrence Galleries, a partnership that helped him gain significant recognition in the U.S. Martin Lawrence Galleries produced and distributed many of his limited edition prints, expanding his audience.

Artist: Hiro Yamagata
Lively Paris street. 1973. Oil on canvas. 54 x 73cm
By Hiro Yamagata
Located in Riga, LV
Lively Paris street. 1973. Oil on canvas. 54 x 73cm Hiro Yamagata was born near Kyoto, Japan, went to Paris to study art, and considers himself an American artist. In his Los Angeles studio, Yamagata paints minutely detailed scenes of Paris streets, cafes and parks. He captures the essence of the naif style by presenting life in simple terms, and the world in the happiest light. His creative synthesis of photorealist and neo-primitive techniques has won countless admirers and collectors. Yamagata's vision is unequivocally cheerful and his imagery is endlessly inventive. He works from a palette of over 100 shades of acrylic paints, and renders in exacting detail with brushes with as small as two hairs. Serigraphs of some of Yamagata's most popular paintings...
