About the productJapanese

"Destruction creates creation"
Art artist Takahiro Iwasaki's first collection of works!

Takahiro Iwasaki is an artist who has produced the "Out of Disorder" series, in which he creates miniature versions of huge structures such as steel towers and cranes using everyday items such as towels and toothbrushes, as well as the "Reflection Model" series, which are three-dimensional works that combine the actual images of historical structures with their mirror images reflected on the water's surface.

This book is the first collection of Iwasaki Takahiro's works to include not only new works presented at the exhibition at the Kanazu Sosaku no Mori Museum of Art in Fukui Prefecture (September 28, 2024 - December 15, 2025), but also his past masterpieces.
Iwasaki has created many works based on the local area, and the new work included in this book is a large-scale installation inspired by Fukui, which was created based on the spatial and local context after extensive research into the climate and history of Fukui Prefecture. The book is divided into two parts: one page is made up of photos of the exhibition view that conveys the sense of scale, and the other page introduces his past works, allowing you to get to know Takahiro Iwasaki, a contemporary artist, from the coordinate axis of present and past.
