Autumn Book Fair
The heat of summer eases, and autumn comes! It’s the most comfortable and nicest weather, but rains a lot as well. If you are planning to spend weekends at home, we are happy to help with our beautiful book collections which we offer 20% discount.
Here are some books I personally recommend.
『The Notebooks by Jean-Michel Basquiat』
Brooklyn-born Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960-88) was one of the most important artists of the 1980s. From 1980 to 1987, he filled numerous working notebooks with drawings and handwritten texts. This facsimile edition reproduces the pages of eight of these fascinating and rarely seen notebooks for the first time.
『House Hunting by Todd Hido』
A newly remastered edition of Todd Hido’s iconic and highly sought-after first monograph, House Hunting. To celebrate the upcoming 20th anniversary of this important book – certainly one of the most influential and oft-cited photography monographs of our time. Printed on heavy weight matte art paper, using cutting-edge technologies in both the pre-press and production phases, this new edition of House Hunting stays true to the original design and format while delivering even more accurate color rendition and nuances in tone and saturation.
『The Lines Of The Sight by Carmen Herrera』
This important catalogue offers the first sustained examination of Herrera’s early career from 1948 to 1978, which spans the art worlds of Havana, Paris, and New York. Essays consider the artist’s early studies in Cuba, her involvement with the Salon des Realites Nouvelles in post-war Paris, and her groundbreaking New York output, as well as situate her work in the context of a broader Latin American avant-garde art.
『The Players by Mark Steinmetz』
The Players, it long-awaited publication presents 73 of Steinmetz's photographs of adolescent and teenaged baseball players, on the field and in the dugout, focused on the game and lost in their own worlds. Made between 1986 and 1990, the photographs are classic Steinmetz: tenderness, humor, and humanism are all present here, as is Steinmetz's exquisite use of natural light and attention to poetic detail.
