Suehiro Maruo - 28 Scenes Of Murder (Artbook)



Maruo Suehiro (丸尾末広), born January 28, 1956 in Nagasaki, Japan, is a Japanese manga artist, illustrator, and painter. Many of Maruo's illustrations depict graphic sex and violence and are therefore referred to as contemporary muzan-e (a subset of Japanese ukiyo-e depicting violence or other atrocities.) Maruo himself featured in a 1988 book on the subject with fellow artist Kazuichi Hanawa entitled Bloody Ukiyo-e , presenting their own contemporary works alongside the traditional prints of Yoshitoshi and Yoshiku. Maruo's nightmarish manga fall into the Japanese category of "erotic grotesque" (エログロ; "ero-guro").
