Masao Ido - Born to Japanese parents in Manchuria in 1945, Masao Ido moved to Japan as a small child , living and working in Kyoto. He has achieved an international reputation as one of Japan's leading contemporary artists, and his works are included in the collections of the Tokyo National Museum and the Los Angeles County Museum of Art.
