Earlier monographs by Nazraeli Press, Japan and Hokkaido, have been out of print for many years, so we are thrilled to share this important new publication that features work spanning Kenna’s decades-long love affair with the country. It opens with an essay in Japanese and English by the renowned critic and historian Kohtaro Iizawa.
