Cutie And The Boxer

This candid New York story explores the chaotic 40-year marriage of renowned "boxing" painter Ushio Shinohara and his artist wife, Noriko. Ushio seemed destined for fame, but met with little commercial success after he moved to New York City in 1969. When 19-year-old Noriko moved to New York to study art, she fell in love with Ushio—abandoning her education to become the wife and assistant to an unruly, alcoholic husband. © 2013 Ex Lion Tamer, INC.
