Quest for Eros
The hot and rare first edition of Seiji Kurata’s Quest for Eros, featuring nudes with acrobatic and bold poses. Although sometimes colourised, the photographs are mostly in black and white, and occasionally with bold statements in a condensed and italic sans-serif typeface overlaying on top. Hibiki Tokiwa, also known as a photographer, designed this book with this unique silver cover. It also comes with a silkscreened cardboard slipcase (and assembled with staples!). Only 999 copies were printed. Exceptional copy, signed by the photographer.
