Keiji Usami (Japanese, b. 1940) A Couple, 1968 Identified on a label from Minami Gallery, Tokyo, Japan, affixed to the stretcher. Oil on canvas, 36 x 46 in. (91.4 x 116.8 cm), framed. Condition: Good. Provenance: A private New England collection. N.B. Usami's work depicting fragmented figures largely derives from photographs of the Watts Riots of 1965 in Los Angeles. The six-day riot, which was the largest in Los Angeles history until the Watts Riots of 1992, was prompted by mounting racial tensions and accusations of police brutality.
