　　An undisputed masterwork among Japanese photobooks, Eikoh

Hosoe and Tatsumi Hijikata's "Kamaitachi" was originally released

in 1969 as a limited edition of 1,000 copies. Hosoe, the renowned

photographer, and Hijikata, the founder of ankoku butoh dance, had

visited a farming village in northern Japan, where Hijikata

improvised a performance inspired by the legend of a weasel-like

demon named Kamaitachi. As Hosoe photographed Hijikata's

spontaneous interactions with the landscape and with the people

they encountered, the two artists together enacted an intense

investigation of tradition and an exploration, both personal and

symbolic, of contemporary convulsions in Japanese society. In 2005,

Aperture published a limited-edition facsimile in homage to the

original, in close consultation with the artist; now, they have

made this enchanting body of work available in its first ever

affordable trade edition, which was painstakingly reworked by

renowned graphic artist Ikko Tanaka--the designer of the original

volume--shortly before his death. His reinterpretation of this

classic book object, which is truly a paragon of Japanese

bookmaking, includes as a special bonus four never-before-published

images from the classic Kamaitachi series. Eikoh Hosoe was born in

Yamagata Prefecture, Japan, in 1933. He is an integral part of the

history of modern Japanese photography, and remains a driving force

not only for his own work, but also for his efforts as a teacher

and ambassador, fostering artistic exchange between Japan and the

outside world. Hosoe lives in Tokyo and is represented by Howard

Greenberg Gallery, New York.

书籍介绍

Eikoh Hosoe's Kamaitachi, a classic and groundbreaking body of work, was originally released in 1969 as a limited-edition photobook of one thousand copies. A unique collaboration between photographer Eikoh Hosoe and Tatsumi Hijikata, the founder of ankoku butoh dance, the work documents their visit to a farming village in northern Japan and the improvisational performance that resulted, made with the participation of local villagers and inspired by the legend of kamaitachi, a weasel-like demon who haunts the rice fields and slashes those he encounters with a sickle.

In 2005, in close consultation with the artist, Aperture released a limited-edition facsimile in homage to the original. In this 2009 edition, Aperture is honored to reinterpret this paragon of Japanese bookmaking, which now includes four never-before-published images from the classic Kamaitachi series and a new text by preeminent Japanese scholar Donald Keene, as well as essays by Eikoh Hosoe and Suzo Takiguchi. Aperture is doubly pleased to make this enchanting body of work available, for the first time ever, in an affordable trade edition. This version was painstakingly reworked by renowned graphic artist Ikko Tanaka, designer of the original volume, shortly before his death.

Hosoe and Hijikata, who first met in 1959, share the same birthplace: the Tohoku countryside in Northern Japan, where most of the images were made. Hosoe photographed Hijikata's spontaneous interactions with the landscape and the people they encountered. A magnificent and seductive combination of performance and photography, the two artists enact an intense investigation of tradition and an exploration, both personal and symbolic, of Japanese society during a time of massive upheaval and change. In an accompanying personal essay, published here for the first time, Hosoe recounts how he became one of the Beat Generation artists, who were willing to try anything new, and his exploration of how traditional documentary photography and personal expression could be merged into what he describes as "subjective documentary."
