Born in Japan in 1975 Kazuyoshi Usui's Macaroni Christian portrays protagonists in various scenes played out in three parts.

"These photographs are bluntly aggressive and theatrical. They illustrate the response o a young an in a country that is suffocating and confined, adrift with no idea where it's headin. Kazuyoshi has bypassed notions of new or old: what counts for him is satisfying his own demands, and this becomes the hammer he uses to break through to a wider world." (Eikoh Hosoe)

Hardcover, obi is missing, 280 x 210 mm. First edition, 2006. Black and white photographs. Design by Takeshi Wakamatsu. In very good condition.
