Description: "Kaoru Izima, 2000-2001," published by FA Projects, London, 2001, 63 pages, oblong softcover in thick wraps, 9.5" by 7.5". Superb collection of Izima's photographic sequences, wedding the gorgeous to the grotesque. Izima stages series of tableaux featuring models and actresses in murder scenarios of various settings - high-rise office building, amusement park, rural pathway. The images are compelling rather than ludicrous or gratuitous, due largely to Izima's considerable compositional skill and the brilliant play of color and his smart reconceptualization of ideals of glamour and beauty (the models are all wearing high fashion clothes by the likes of Comme des Garcons and Yohji Yamamoto). Great layout and printing, profiling six series, each an imaginative sequence of numerous images from several different angles. Rare - OCLC shows only two copies in American institutions.
