FILE # 4 "ALAIN "KET" MARIDUENA"

January 31, 2012

It`s been 10 years since I started my Company, during these years, I`ve worked with countless Artists from NY and have been doing art events in Japan. Most definitely, without my friend, Ket`s continuous advises and his help with the Artist collaborations and creating Art exhibitions, Expansion, Inc. may not been around this long.  Therefore, I sincerely thank him for his role in my life.


Ket is an Artist, Art curator, a writer, photographer, publisher and a multi-talented guy. Did I also mention that he is a joke and very good friend of mine. He was the curator for an exhibition at "MoCA" in Los Angeles and Fondation "Cartier" in Paris and more. Ket was founder of Stress Magazine, an ex-vice President of Complex magazine, and now he works at Vibe Magazine as a Photo Director, publishing books and more.

Last year, while I was doing a Video Blog for "CASIO", Ket allowed me to use my digital camera to capture behind the scene of how to make a magazine inside his studio. The result was awesome, as I wanted to show the young Japanese generation who were interested in media world.  Hopefully it gave them some insight of the media world which in turn motivated there near future. Again,  many thanks to Ket and Zun Bug from BBP for the editing.
