Signed. Signed copy of Ishiuchi Miyako's Yokosuka Again 1980-1990. In 1977, Ishiuchi photographed Yokosuka, the port town in Japan where she grew up during the 1950s and '60s, returning some nine years after leaving to revisit memories from her childhood. This work was published as Yokosuka Story (1979), which hinted at the tensions arising from the United States Naval base, which came to dominate the town. The photographs in Yokosuka Again were made after the publication of Yokosuka Story and are focused more directly on the area around the Naval base, which, while hinted at, was not featured in the earlier book.
First edition, signed; 4to (278 x 230 mm, 11 x 9 in); black-and-white photographs printed in offset; photo-illustrated wrappers, fine in the publisher's near-fine cardboard slipcase with a printed label, indentation marks on the rear; [104]pp.
