Fragile Exhibition

Yayoi face

We would like to introduce a few of the books I have liked and collected so far in a more coherent form. For the first installment, we have reorganized them under the theme of “sobriety. The covers are light-colored, with few illustrations or colors, and have a subdued appearance. From the outside, you can't really tell what's inside. Yet, it still has a surprising world inside. I like such jimibukai books despite their appearance, and I have been collecting them little by little as I come across them. The 16 books that appear here were born in Japan, Germany, the U.S., France, Holland, Spain, and many other places. The birth years also range from 1937 to 2020. The worlds they inhabit include photo collections, poetry collections, Braille, and manuscripts, which are never usually found next to each other. Please take a look at these books that celebrate the flavor of the land.
