Book excerpt: This book is a monograph of the japanese contemporary artist Kaz Oshiro who lives and works in Los Angeles. It proposes a large view of his work and art practice. the art of Kaz Oshiro is exactly attuned to the issues of this incipient and paradoxical twenty-first century. Oshiro's highly crafted, trompe l'oeil objectpaintings seemingly follow on the traditions of the ready-made, presenting in an austere art gallery setting über-ordinary items like beaten-up amplifiers, filing cabinets, trash dumpsters, suitcases, car upholstery, and truck bumpers. But these are not ordinary found objects. Michael Duncan
