Yukikazu Ito - Tetsuo (伊藤之 - 『テツオ』), Wall, 2006, Tokyo

 

Softcover, numbered (edition of 350, according to Miwa Susuda). Art director Atushi Ogi, printing director Kazuo Iidaka.

"Although the images are interesting enough on their own, it is their presentation in this book which I find really enticing. Printed on a "cheap" newsprint type stock, the images with their tack sharp grain and matte appearance look beautiful. The paper reduces the images to the lowest common denominator of tone and almost completely renders the darkest areas with no shadow detail. The result is a sooty or ashen feel to the images like coal dust is heavy in the air. Staple bound at three points on the left edge, the whole presentation has a simple home-made feel. The title is printed on the exposed page edges on the spine." (Jeffrey Lad)
