{"product_id":"tatsukimasaru_owari","title":"Masaru Tatsuki: The End. ~April 1, 2014 (Signed)","description":"\u003cp\u003eMasaru Tatsuki's \"Owari.\" is a photobook documenting the end of deer hunting in Tohoku, a practice that had continued for over half a century, and quietly captures the changes in the land and people's lives after the earthquake and tsunami.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe backdrop to the book is the decision of a long-time deer hunter to give up hunting after radioactive substances were detected in venison, making it inedible. The act of entering the mountains, pursuing animals, and taking their lives was not merely a livelihood but a way of life deeply rooted in the land itself. With its large format and concise page layout, fragments of people, forests, tools, and atmospheres are presented with quiet intensity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eThe title \"Owari.\" (The End.) signifies not only the retirement of a single hunter but also the disruption of a cultural way of life passed down through generations in the region. This book does not directly photograph the earthquake and tsunami itself but rather gazes at the practices lost in its aftermath, thus capturing the reality of Tohoku from a deeper perspective. Among Tatsuki's continuous work on Tohoku, this book profoundly imprints the irreversibility of time.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e[Title] Owari. ~ April 1, 2014\u003cbr\u003e[Publisher] SUPER BOOKS\u003cbr\u003e[Publication Date] October 10, 2014 \/ Limited to 500 copies\u003cbr\u003e[Page Count] 24 pages\u003cbr\u003e[Size] Approx. 300*300*3mm \/ 218g\u003cbr\u003e[Format] Softcover\u003cbr\u003e[Language] Japanese, English\u003cbr\u003e[Title Reading] OWARI.\u003cbr\u003e[Author\/Editor] Masaru Tatsuki \/ Author, Yoshiki Ochiai (Garage) \/ Design\u003cbr\u003e[Printing] Sankei Sogo Printing \/ Printing \u0026amp; Binding\u003cbr\u003e[ISBN] None\u003cbr\u003e[Condition] Used, Edition 321\/500, Signed [8] Excellent to Good\u003cbr\u003e[Accessories] -\u003cbr\u003e[Featured In]\u003cbr\u003e[Related Exhibition] March-April 2012 SLANT (Kanazawa)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003chr\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eMasaru Tatsuki\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn in Toyama Prefecture in 1974.
