Comatsu is a lawyer specializing in litigation, such as copyright. He became a collector himself while engaged in art-related consultation and trials as a member of "Arts and Law" - a professional association in support of arts and cultural acitivities. The majority of his earnings obtained in litigation go towards his colleciton. Comatsu moved to New York in 2014 to research legislation, court cases and government subsidy in regards to cutting-edge art. While he is having fun mixing with local NY artists on a daily basis, Comatsu has decided to return for 3331 Art Fair to assess the ever-changing contemporary art scene in Japan. He looks forward to seeing the beautiful work.
