Description from the seller

One of the earliest photobook by Keizo Kitajima. After studying at Daido Moriyama’s Workshop Photo School, Kitajima developed the series Photo Express Tokyo, which he presented at “CAMP,” an independent, artist-run gallery located in Shinjuku Ni-chome, Tokyo; this volume brings that body of work together in book form. The book also includes texts such as Daido Moriyama’s “A Daylight Street Assassin: Keizo Kitajima.”

CONDITION
There is closed-tears to the obi, but overall the condition is very good. With Obi.

SHIPPING
Shipped via EMS or DHL. Delivery is available within one week, with a tracking number provided.

Seller's Story

Totodo is a curated antiquarian bookstore based in Japan, dedicated to art books, photography, exhibition catalogues, artist publications, and rare out-of-print titles. Rather than operating as a volume-driven reseller, we approach bookselling as a form of editorial practice. Each work is carefully selected for its artistic significance, historical context, and lasting relevance, with an emphasis on titles that have shaped visual culture and contemporary thought. Drawing from decades of experience in the Japanese art book ecosystem, as well as relationships with collectors, estates, and specialized distributors, we are able to present material that is both culturally important and increasingly scarce in the international market. We maintain rigorous standards for condition assessment and bibliographic accuracy, and every item is securely packaged for international shipment. Our aim is to provide collectors and institutions with thoughtfully chosen works, professional service, and complete transparency.
