Today might be the freest epoch, and the best time to create liberated and no-holds-barred expression of ideologies through art.

In a country where distinct and familiar style is being followed by artists, these contemporary artisans are creating a paradigm shift; thus, getting out of the typical Japanese style and nevertheless creating their own identity to influence the diverse world.

Here, we listed some of the most celebrated contemporary artists from Japan. This may not be a perfect list, though, because we know there are many promising artists in Japan that might be popular in the coming days, weeks or months. So, read on, and check out their iconic works.

1. Yayoi Kusama
When you hear Yayoi Kusama, probably, you will think of a myriad of dots, patterned to create a certain image or shape. She popularized the use of black circles and bright colors like red or yellow in her minimalist artworks. Even if she is into mixed art, she still maintains her dotted-style in sculptures, paintings, installations, and even in designer bags. Kusama is also one of the famous artists included in the best art festival in Japan, the Setouchi International Art Festival or Setouchi Triennale. Apart from the circles and curves, she also uses mirrors to create illusion of infinity to her room installations.

Some of her works:

2. Takashi Murakami
Takashi Murakami is one of the sought-after and most innovative minds in the art scene today. He focuses on sculpture, animation, installation, and paintings as his medium. His superflat and cartoon style, and linking the traditional art to the modern visual culture, makes him stand-out. Like Yayoi Kusama, his artworks has already been put into Louis Vuitton bags, into Vans shoes, became an album cover for Kanye West, and he has collaborated with Pharell Williams for an installation.

4. Tenmyouya Hisashi
Tenmyouya Hisashi calls his art as "Neo Nihonga," meaning Neo Japanese Painting. He has worked as an art director in a record label before shifting to his career as contemporary artist. His art mixes the Japanese traditional art to Western influences like hip-hop.

She is known for her intricate ceramics that depicts several structures in Japan like the Golden Pavillion, and the octopus-shaped jar.

10. Naomi Okubo
Naomi Okubo is one of the artists who's obsession is into patterns and strong colors. Her paintings speak of one style, she focuses on the intricate patterns and not on the faces of her subjects, but the message is still on-point.
