Publication/Work:
1: PROVOKE Complete Reprint of 3 Volumes
This is a complete reprint of the legendary photo magazine "Provoke," first published in 1968 by a group of artists including Taki Koji, Nakahira Takuma, Takanashi Yutaka, Okada Takahiko, and (later Moriyama Daido). Manuscript data has been extracted from the original three volumes, faithfully reproducing the photographic images. The texts contained in the original will also be translated into English and Chinese and published as separate volumes. It will be sold as a set of four books, including all three volumes plus one separate volume. Furthermore, this time we have also perfectly reproduced the "obi" that was said to have been included only with the second issue.
2: Daniel Niles: BASKET of DREAMS
Daniel Niles is professor of geography at the Research Institute for Humanity and Nature, Kyoto. He writes on material culture, art, aesthetics, environmental knowledge and sustainability.
