Izima Kaoru's Landscapes with a Corpse, first edition hardback published by Hatje Cantz (Ostfildern) in 2008, 191 pages, texts in English and German, in mint, shrink-wrapped condition.
Description from the seller
FANTASTIC OVERSIZE IZIMA KAORU BOOK ABOUT DEATH -
with a beautiful linen binding at the spine.
New, mint, unread; still originally shrink-wrapped in publisher's plastic foil.
COLLECTOR'S COPY.
"Landscapes with a Corpse assembles for the first time all of the photographic epics created by Izima since 1993. Japanese film divas and models, but also European actresses such as Barbara Rudnik or Helena Noguerra, are posed in perpetual beauty in gowns by Prada, Gucci, and Dior. The visual sources range from traditional Japanese Ukiyo-e woodcuts to Pop Art—and the results are always characterized by a bewitching melancholic beauty, and sadness."
(from publisher)
THIS IS THE FIRST BEST-OF-PHOTOBOOKS AUCTION by 5Uhr30.com, starting in 2026.
With more than 100 great lots from my personal collection and from recent acquisitions.
"The Japanese artist Izima Kaoru (*1954 in Kyoto) lets the most beautiful of the beautiful generate ideas about their own impermanence, about their own death, which he then translates into images. Starting with classic and strict landscape photographs, his highly aesthetic images slowly approach the victims of self-inflicted or external violence—right through to detailed close-ups of their faces—who have experienced death in perfect beauty."
