Unposted, with light handling wear and a small lower-corner crease.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAraki had treated photography as a form of personal narrative since \u003cem\u003eSentimental Journey\u003c\/em\u003e in 1971, moving between Tokyo, intimacy, eroticism and mortality through an exceptionally prolific sequence of photographs and books. By 1995, this private-looking image world was circulating widely through European museums and publishers.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eHere, a photograph is reduced to postal scale and assigned a number within a five-card sequence. The exhibition becomes portable: artist, image, institution and dates compressed into a unit made for distribution. The photographic image sits within a Polaroid-like white border; exhibition dates and the museum’s whale emblem occupy the stamp box, while the publisher’s credit divides the reverse vertically.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eShips flat, securely card-backed and tracked from the UK.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Gebr.
