Kenro Izu

This limited edition to 15 copies comes with a sunning print signed and numbered by Kenro Izu. Kenro Izu considers his own photography, especially still life that he composes in the studio, as a sort of conversation with himself. The print of this limited edition features a mask facing to a pear. He sees the mask, any mask, as a magic tool that transforms the person who wears it and brings him to another dimension. It may even be a parallel world to the world where we live. At the time of taking this photograph, he was questioning himself about what is that the being behind the mask is seeing through the black holes for the eyes. It actually may not even be a pear. The photographer aims to c...

Still Life

Master photographer Kenro Izu has for years been working with the platinum palladium process to create stunning nudes and floral still lifes. Using large-format cameras, and contact printing images as large as 14x20 inches, Izu creates photographs that possess a rare sensuality and tactility. Their surface qualities and rich tonalities conjure the hand-crafted beauty of earlier movements in photography, but these images are so timeless they beg contemplation and immersion from the viewer. It's no wonder Izu has been noticed by such important photography collectors as Elton John. This book, the first devoted to both Izu's nudes and floral still lifes, is certain to become a classic. Printed in large format on luscious Italian stock, the images come alive in this rarefied book -- which features an introduction by Richard Gere, and an interpretive essay by noted curator Arthur Olman.

"Impermanence celebrates the extraordinary fifty-year career of photographer Kenro Izu since he first arrived in America from Japan in 1971. In what began as a journey of artistic self discovery Izu came to be fascinated by the beauty and fragility of the world around him. In 1979, a trip to Egypt to photograph the ancient site at Sakkara would be a turning point and set Izu on the path that he has continued to follow to this day. Over time, Izu's vision as a photographer and skills as a printer-particularly of platinum/palladium prints-became more refined and has resulted in widespread appreciation for his work. This elegantly slipcased 324-page book contains selections from the broad range...
