Rinko Kawauchi: Sheets
Download Free (EPUB, PDF)

With every new publication, acclaimed Japanese photographer Rinko Kawauchi (born 1972) reimagines the terms of both her own work and the photo book as a form, while retaining her special capacity to depict the world with a palpable delight and awe. Sheets continues this adventurous trajectory. It consists of contact sheets from a variety of Kawauchi’s previous projects, re-edited here as a cinematic narrative or scrapbook, with gatefolds interspersed throughout to punctuate the strongly rhythmic character created by the contact sheets’ black frames. At once emphatically ordinary and lusciously transcendent, these color images of veiny palm fronds and water droplets on lotus leaves, waterfalls, birds, butterflies, open skies, domestic activities, bleached-out beach scenes and street lamps aglow at night celebrate ephemeral luminosity and everyday epiphanies. Sequenced by Kawauchi and publisher/editor Misha Kominek, and designed by Kominek and Claudia Ott, this hardcover volume opens up a new dimension on Kawauchi’s much-admired oeuvre.

Rinko Kawauchi has a love of books and it comes through with each new book release. With this project she gathers a collection on contact sheets and they are printed six frames to a page. She creates a sequence that suggests a narrative and also lets you see unedited frames that are usually edited out of her more standard books. There are also full page and gatefolds that add to the sequential aspect of the book. This is a unique book for Kawauchi fans and a delight to look through. The format is smaller than her other books but that is because it is sized proportionally to the dimensions of the film strips. If you are new to her work this is not the place to start, look at "Illuminance" instead. For those already familiar with her work this is a nice addition to the library. Recommended.
