About This Item
(VISIONAIRE). Edited By Gan, Stephen, Cecilia Dean & James Kaliardos. Text By Glenn O'Brien.. VISIONAIRE NO. 30: THE GAME - JAPAN. New York: Visionaire Publishing, 2000. First Edition 1/6000. 4to. Fashion Quarterly. Near Fine/No Jacket - As Issued. np (48pp) + 16 six-sided pictorial blocks housed in a Lucite case. Published in an edition of six thousand copies, this is the thirtieth installment of everyone's favorite long-running luxe fashion quarterly, Visionaire. Issued in conjunction with the Louis Vuitton Cup Trials to determine the finalists for the 2000 America's Cup yacht race, Visionaire assembled teams of artists, photographers and image makers from the seven participating countries. Six contributors each from the U.S., Australia, France, Italy, Japan, Spain and Switzerland produced an image that occupies one side of each of the enclosed blocks; the sixteen cubes placed in the correct configuration form one of the six different images. The six Japanese contributors represented here are Yoshitomo Nara, Takashi Murakami, Takashi Homma, Syd Mead, Daisuke Nakayama, and Miwa Yanagi. These cubes, along with a booklet of all forty-two images are packaged inside a silk-screened Lucite case created for Visionaire by Louis Vuitton. The closure for this case is a spherical compass on a leather thong, so you'll never get lost while trying to solve the puzzles inside. A most handsome individually numbered example (#2662) of the Japan edition inside the publisher's unprinted protective cardboard shipping box, as issued. PLEASE NOTE: Additional shipping costs are required for this item beyond our standard rates due to its weight and value - we will inform you of the applicable amount at time of purchase. 1-888645-27-X Inventory Number: 023774
