In selecting nine independent photographers who are actively producing new work and currently still in the early years of their respective careers, this volume does not attempt to show a comprehensive representation of the current state of Japanese photography, but rather focuses on how these young artists reflect the country’s present concerns and future aspirations as it looks forward to hosting the Olympic Games in 2020. Included are wildly different works by Maya Akashika, Yuji Hamada, Go Itami, Kosuke, Yoshinori Mizutani, Wataru Yamamoto,  Daisuke Yokota, Kazuo Yoshida and Yumiko Utsu, plus artists’ statements, biographies and an essay by Ivan Vartanian.

Michelle Grabner
I Work From Home



Published by: Mousse Publishing

200 pages 23.5 x 33.5 cm Softcover English

£29.00

David Norr, ed.  Texts by Dan Byers, Rose Bouthillier, Michelle Grabner, Brad Killam, David Norr, Peter RIbic, David Robbins, and Molly Zuckerman-Hartung The reference monograph on the American artist Michelle Grabner, this volume offers an expansive look at an artist whose body of work and sphere of influence continue to gain recognition. Published on the occasion of the the artist’s retrospective at the MOCA Cleveland, the book  documents works from the last 20 years, positioning the studio as core to a remarkably diverse output—paintings, drawings, prints, videos, and sculptures. Considering Grabner’s pursuit of art making, criticism, and curating as inextricably linked, this publication seeks to highlight the distinctive values and ideas that drive Grabner’s practice: woking outside of dominant systems, working tirelessly, and working across platforms.

£32.00

David Norr, ed.  Texts by Rose Bouthillier, Tina Kukielski, Judith Rodenbeck, David Norr and Corin Hewitt Corin Hewitt’s performative installations use exhibition spaces as sites for production. Integrating process and display strategies, Hewitt offers viewers the simultaneous encounter of an artwork and the action that brought it to be. This book, published after the artist’s exhibition at MOCA Cleveland, brings together the documentation of seven installations, produced from 2007 up to the 2013, including preparatory sketches, process shots, exhibition documentation, and discrete photographic works. This visual mass helps understand Hewitt’s practice as a continuum of interconnected actions and materializations, instances of generative discovery and contextual play.

Thomas Kratz
Head – Lick Gin – Nude



Published by: Mousse Publishing

80 pages 20 x 27 cm Softcover English/German

£20.00

Thomas Thiel, Henrikke Nielsen, Oliver Croy, ed.  Texts by Marcus Steinweg and Martin Germann  With a conversation between Thomas Kratz and Thomas Thiel Joining handcrafted materiality to the random nature of industrial production, the work of German painter Thomas Kratz explores fundamental themes from the history of art and of contemporary life, and the conditions governing color, form and material. Both representational and purely abstract; minimalist and flat, and yet layered, his paintings define the boundaries between inside and outside, image and viewer, figuration and abstraction, treating the unprimed, porous canvas as a membrane. In addition, Kratz creates sculptures and performances in which everyday items become objects of worship to be incorporated in his own ritualistic, sometimes surreal games in space. Published to accompany his solo show “Love” at the Bielefelder Kunstverein, Berlin, the book details the new paintings and murals created for the exhibition, investigating ways that painting can be presented in keeping with the times and can form an intense dialogue with the architectural space.

£53.00

Paris, 1971. At a biennale where young artists from around the world had gathered, Nakahira Takuma performed an experimental project that dared to ask, “what is expression?” He attempted to indiscriminately document a limited reality shaped by “date” and “place” and then immediately re-“circulate” these in reality. This would be the first materialization of his own photographic methodology.

Kazuo Kitai
Agitators



Published by: Zen Foto Gallery

64 pages 29.5 x 29.5 cm Softcover Edition of 1000 

£20.00

Kazuo Kitai had dropped out of university just six months after entering the Photography course in the Art Department of Nihon University in Tokyo. As he puts it himself: "I didn`t listen to anything my teachers said". He had been living in Kobe, and even as a teenager used to visit the ateliers and exhibitions of the Gutai artists who are so celebrated nowadays. This was a chaotic era, with trouble fermenting in student and worker movements. The rebellious young Kitai had an idea to make a photo book inspired by french film of the early 1960s; to create a document combining the street demonstrations together with scenes of everyday life in the streets of the same city.
