NEW PUBLICATION FROM THE RENAISSANCE SOCIETY



Yutaka Sone

Snowflake



2006, 32 pages, all color

ISBN 9-41548-50-3

$50.00

Members: $40.00



This unique publication is based on a hand-bound book of

collages made by Yutaka Sone on one of his favorite

themes — snow, or more specifically, his love of the winter

landscape and delight in winter sports. Sone applied white

duct tape and painted with the aptly named White-Out on

magazine images of mountains and snowboarders. On top of it

all he added fragments of printed lyrics he wrote for the Snow

Flake Band, a short-lived art rock outfit. A facsimile of the

original collages, including the texture of duct tape and

thickly applied White-Out, this gorgeous book is an astounding

feat of offset print technology.
