KAZUO OHNO


Kazuo Ohno is a Japanese performance artist who, at the age of 102, is being featured in the Autumn / Winter 09 issue of AnOther Magazine.
Ohno moved in a way that is both elegant and frightening.
Sadly, he can no longer dance, move or speak.

Holy shit, a 102 years old? WOW.
I always find traditional Japanese stuff (movies, art, etc.) to be beautiful yet very creepy and frightening. So, I became obsessed by the movie 'Imprint' by Takashi Miike. I didn't watch it yet, because I am too scared. But I read some reviews, and a lot of people said that the movie was, though hard to watch, really beautiful and terrifying at the same time. I think this is something only the Japanese can accomplish.
