Takesada Matsutani (Japanese: 松谷 武判) is a Japanese contemporary mixed-media artist. He was a member of the Gutai group from 1963 to the dissolution of the group in 1972. His well-known work involves a technique of blowing a gust of air into a puddle of vinyl wood glue, creating bulges, bubbles, and drips, then covered by patient strokes of graphite pencil.
