AI-assisted summary

Description from the seller

Published in 2001, Björk—also known as Björk as a Book—is an ambitious visual monograph conceived by the Icelandic musician and artist herself. The book was edited and designed by the renowned French graphic design studio M/M (Paris), whose long-standing collaboration with Björk has played an important role in shaping her distinctive visual identity.
Rather than presenting a conventional chronological biography, the book brings together photographs, texts, artwork and specially commissioned contributions exploring Björk’s creative world and the collaborative process behind her public image.
The extensive list of contributors includes Nobuyoshi Araki, Anton Corbijn, Juergen Teller, Nick Knight, Inez van Lamsweerde & Vinoodh Matadin, Glen Luchford, Chris Cunningham, Michel Gondry, Comme des Garçons, Hussein Chalayan, Jeremy Scott, Lars von Trier and many others.
An important and highly collectible publication at the intersection of music, photography, fashion, contemporary art and graphic design.
First edition, published in 2001 by Little-i Ltd / Björk Overseas Ltd. Softcover, 192 pages, English text.

CONDITION
The dust jacket and the top edge of the text block have some staining, but overall the book is in good condition.

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.
