Itō, Yoshiji.

Atarashii Shitsunai Sōchi to Kagu (新しい室内装置と家具), (New Interior Design and Furniture). Ōsaka, Kōjinsha Shōwa 9 [1934]. (2), 9, 482 pages, illustrated with a few drawings and 28 plates of photographs. 22,5 x 16 cm. Hardback with a green cover featuring a leather-like pattern and a mounted illustration, original slipcase. The book was edited by Yoshitsugu Itō, with contributions from Yoshitaka Oguri. It is divided into several sections that explore the evolution of housing, providing an overview of the development of housing styles in Japan and Western Europe, detailed floor plan concepts, and the design and furnishings of individual rooms. Yoshitsugu Itō was an expert in interior architecture and furniture design during the early Shōwa period. He was not only active as an author but also taught at technical colleges (such as the Tokyo Higher School of Arts and Technology), which played a key role in introduing Western manufacturing techniques and aesthetics to Japan. At first glance, the cover seems jarring for a book on interior design, but it is typical of the ‘Shōwa Modernism’ of the 1930s. The nude as a symbol of modernism. The use of nude photography was intended to signal a radical break with tradition. It stood for ‘liberation’, ‘naturalness’ and the ‘new human’. In the design community of the time, the human body was regarded as the ultimate measure of ergonomic furniture design. Outside Japan, I can only locate one copy: Library of Congress, in the US. The original slipcase is slightly stained and damaged at the edges; the book itself is in excellent condition.

Koshiro Onchi. 恩地孝四郎

Hakubutsushi: zuihitsu shashin. 博物志 : 隨筆·写真 (Records of Nature: Essays and Photographs) Tokyo, Genkosha) 1942. [2], 141, [3]pp. illustrated throughout with 107 b/w in-text photographic reproductions. 27 x 19 cm. Red-lettered illustrated dust-jacket over cloth, in its original printed cardboard slipcase. Scarce and unusual work by Onchi Koshiro (1891-1955), a noted Japanese print-maker, photographer, and one of the fathers of the Sosaku-hanga movement in the early decades of 20th-century Japan. The book is a stunning tour de force, as it shows the author’s incredible ability to see abstract and surreal beauty in the natural environment. The first 83 pages show photographs of various plants, followed by photographs of insects, reptiles, fishes, birds, cats and cows (pp. 84-130), and ends with pictures of animals in a zoo (pp.131-139). Some of the stark close-up portraits of plants are reminiscent of Karl Blossfeldt’s work. Onchi’s acoompanying text is comprised of comtemplative essays and childhood remenices on his various subjects, also describing their meanings for him. The work was printed in a limited number of 1500 copies. Very nice copy, the slipcase slightly browned at the edges, the dust jacket very slightly dusty, slightly more so on the spine.
