A Natural-Born Artist
2012, Japanese. Directed by Shôgo Watanabe.
From his famous "Lolicon" motifs to the scatological, perverse and explicit, Aida has left a distinct mark on the contemporary art world. This film follows him from July 2009 to May 2010 as he paints and moves between the venues showing his work, including San Francisco, Beijing and Japan. It depicts a brutally honest portrait of the artist and the film was completed without the consent of its subject.
