It originated from the ancient martial art of hojojutsu, which was used for restraining captives. In modern times, shibari has evolved into an artistic practice, often associated with BDSM and erotic contexts. Seller Inventory # 13820

Book Description Cloth. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Kinichi Tanaka (illustrator). First Edition. [no location]: Japan Mix Inc & Kinichi Tanaka, 1997. First Edition. Quarto, unpaginated, black cloth without imprint, photopictorial jacket. Fine book in fine jacket, jacket in protective mylar. Pristine; publisher's two inserts are present and laid in. Gleaming. Kinichi Tanaka's artfully executed collection of dozens of full-page black-and-white bondage shots of Japanese women of diverse looks and forms, all done in outdoor - often public- venues. Japanese bondage is itself an artform, as adherents know; but Tanaka's aesthetic vision herein combines that spirit with believably different women, generally beautiful but each always with a face, body, expression and pose (to the degree possible in bondage) which are particular to her unique personality, rather than to cloned models. Moreover, Tanaka's choice of setting and background is in every case itself striking, and adds to an almost disconcerting feeling of authenticity and originality. Extraordinarily well executed, in every respect. Scarce, particularly in Fine/Fine condition. L63. Seller Inventory # 001137
