SHOP Taka Ishii Gallery is pleased to present TIG Books & Editions, a showcase of Taka Ishii Gallery's art publications and special editions, from Oct 23 – Nov 28, 2021. Since 1995, Taka Ishii Gallery has published over 100 art books and catalogues, which serve as documentation of the artists' creative process and exhibitions, as well as a medium of art expressions. Through these publications, both Japanese and international artists are presented to a wider audience.

Photobooks have been one of the major publications of Taka Ishii Gallery since its first publication in 1995, a photobook Imitation by Daido Moriyama on the occasion of the artist's exhibition at the gallery. The collection of images condensed in a book effectively outlines the works by categorizing them into themes and time sequences. This is favored by many photographers presented by the gallery, such as Daido Moriyama, Yutaka Takanashi, and Luigi Ghirri. Photobooks featured in this exhibition include Umegaoka Elegy, a diary cum photo book published in 2019 by Nobuyoshi Araki in conjunction with the eponymous exhibition with the gallery, which candidly reflects his daily life through his lens capturing his preferred habitual subjects.

Gallery address: Bo Fung Mansion, No.1 St. Francis Yard, Wan Chai
