Cat-inspired Art of Catmasutra by paul koh

In the exhibitions, the now famous Catmasutra cat paintings display fierce loyalty to the protagonist as in “The Usual Please”, “All Play, No Work” and “One Night in Chinatown”, where the cat remains a loyal companion to the little boy through to a young man, and finally in “Tender” when he fell in love. These famous cat art paintings then move to fiercer independence, veering towards total escapism and wandering into the art of the masters. Here the Catmasutra cat “escapes” into such famous paintings by David Hockney (After the Splash 2005), Vincent Van Gogh (Sunflowers 2004, Coffeebreak at Vincent's 2005), Claude Monet (Serenading Monet 2005), Fernando Botero (Dancers 2005, Still Life with Botero 2009), René Magritte (Apple on the Inside 2005, Core of Apple 2005), Georges Seurat (Mooching by the Bay 2005), Andy Warhol (Fish Soup 2005, Hot Soup 2006, Tomato-based Catfish Soup 2007). These famous cat art paintings transport the artist and his irrepressible feline companion into the worlds of master artists, allowing us a cheeky peek on the idea of art and painting.

At other times, the Catmasutra cat in these famous cat paintings stay at home, seemingly domesticated, playing at being the perfect companion for the girl, appearing almost at a whim, and capable of soothing any emotions or temperament, sometimes over a bottle of wine or champagne, of course! They include the sublime My Valentine 2006, the mysterious Sleeping in at Lutens 2006, the sneaky Lychee Martini 2006, the sexy Put on Your Red Shoes 2005, the charming Some Kind of Wonderful 2004, the sweet Evening Delight 2004, the subtle Equilibrium 2007, or the naughty The Art of Petting 2007! At the same time, these famous Catmasutra cat paintings play away as a wanderlust addict, appearing in “kopitiams” (local coffee shops), rooftops, in Sushi restaurants, on a ceiling fan, or hanging out on a bamboo pole! Such is the multifarious way of the famous Catmasutra cat paintings that they echo in so many ways, the complexity of the human spirit and psyche.
