前川强是具体美术协会的成员,1959年参加了在京都市立美术馆举办的第八届具体展。1963年,前川在具体画廊举办首次个展后,直到1972年吉原去世,该协会解散为止,参加了具体派的每场展览。在抽象表现主义倾向强烈的具体派之中,前川以粗麻布创作凹凸浮雕状绘画的手法,更加着眼于物体的物质性。活用粗麻布自由度与坚韧度兼具的素材特性,以大胆强力及流动平滑的不同呈现,演绎出各种生动的表情。将以油彩等颜料上色过的画布平铺于地上,再以沾满黏着剂的粗麻布置于画布上,然后趁黏着剂尚未凝固之前,将麻布塑形、切开,使麻布下方的绘画隐约可见。从褐色麻布的缝隙看见基底的表现,一如敞开的窗口彼方有着鲜明感与远近感。前川强藉由画布与麻布两段式构成产生立体感与空间,开拓了物质性绘画的新境地。

具体派解散后,前川强将使用粗麻布的创作方式再加以发展,于是他改选用更柔软的布料,发表了以裁缝机缝制而成的细腻作品,并于80年代获奖无数。
