Hardcover. Condition: Very fine. Folio. (34)pp + 10 platinum prints, each one signed by Hosoe, interpolated + 1 additional print, likewise signed, housed in separate folder. Hosoe's surrealist images capture juxtapositions in human bodies one to another or to objects. The stark contrasts between black and white in the service of eroticism evoke Robert Mapplethorpe, while the presentation of the body as architecture and letterform recalls Man Ray's images of Nusch for his and Paul Eluard's Facile. A suitable pairing of influences, given the ecstatic but tortured nature of Baudelaire's splenic excursus on the modern condition. And immense project, composed in Monotype Walbaum by Michael and Winifred Bixler, with typography and presswork executed by Michael Russem and Mollie Zamoni at the Kat Ran Press.

From the publisher: "John Wood suggested to Eikoh Hosoe that we pair his work with the poet, Charles Baudelaire, and Eikoh told John that Baudelaire was his favorite poet. They each initially selected 11 poems---9 of them matched! Eikoh and I spent a full day, as John Stevenson hosted us at his then Platinum Gallery in Chelsea, for the signing ritual of the platinum prints and the colophon pages. Eikoh was methodical in signing all of his prints. He would sign for an hour and then close his eyes for 15 minutes or so. It was a real dance and an honor to watch. I admire him and his demeanor, which is not unlike what I would expect if I were to meet the Buddha. In fact, I believe I did. -Steven Albahari". Signed by Author(s).
