Kill the Pig — Masahisa Fukase — IBASHO & the(M) éditions — 2021

Reconstructing Masahisa Fukase’s first solo exhibition from 1961, this book brings together the slaughterhouse series Kill the Pig and the intimate Naked photographs made with Yukiyo Kawakami. Shibaura’s pigs, blood and ravens collide with staged images of the couple, establishing early themes of death, desire and autobiography that would recur throughout Fukase’s work. Co-published by IBASHO and the(M) éditions.
