Makoto Aida (会田 誠, Aida Makoto, born 1965) is a Japanese contemporary artist[1][2] known for his provocative works of manga, painting, video, photography, sculpture, and installation.[3][4][5] Though less well known internationally than Takashi Murakami or Yoshitomo Nara, he is recognized in Japan as one of the preeminent figures of Japanese contemporary art.[6]
