Hardcover. Condition: new. Hardcover. In Recruit, Tomoko Sawada continues her work on the autoportrait at the heart of contemporary Japanese society. This time, she explores the identity photos which Japanese students take at the end of their studies when they start looking for work. She retains the well-established formal conventions - dress, posture, neutral facial expression - but adds a subtle variation. Starting with a fixed photographic method, which imitates the photobooth with its similar lighting, unchanging framework and pose-taking, she multiplies the images by playing on her hairdo, her makeup and her facial expression. She surprises the audience by showing difference which she renders possible and visible on her face, and demonstrates therefore the relative character of all appearance.The three contact sheets of portaits are arranged in a grid in the book, giving us a global vision of the number of photographs while inviting us to look from one face to the next. Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability. Seller Inventory # 9791090306295

Hardcover. Condition: Very Good. 1st Edition. Bound in thick cardboard, [14]p thick glossy 2 mm cardboards, illustrations, 39 cm. Very good, light shelf-wear. In Recruit, Tomoko Sawada continues her work on the auto portrait, venturing to the heart of contemporary Japanese society. This time, she focuses on the formal photos taken by Japanese students after graduation, when they begin searching for work. She retains the well-established formal conventions of dress, posture, and neutral facial expressions with only subtle variation. Basing off a fixed photographic method, which imitates the lighting and fixed poses of the photo booth, she multiplies the images, intervening only by changing her hairdo, makeup and facial expressions. She surprises the audience with the diversity and variety she renders possible in one face, revealing the relative character of appearance on a larger scale. The three contact sheets of portraits are arranged in a grid formation on the pages of the book, providing a global vision of the number of photographs while simultaneously inviting our gaze to venture from each individual face to the next.
