TOKION MAGAZINE ISSUE 1 OBSERVE

The culture magazine “TOKION”, which was first published in 1996,
is now back in print. Under the theme of “sending Japan’s cutting-edge
culture to the world”.

The specs involve six booklets and three tabloids that have been
enclosed within original boxes. This is not the ordinary way in which
magazines are bound. The reason that these special features have
such volume is because it is clear that each of these artists “Observe,”
no matter what order they are read in. The participating contributors
include the French artist Pierre Soulages, the artist Tadanori Yokoo,
the three-piece band Kukangendai, the comedian Korokke, and an artist
collective with eight people in it, each of which compiled together
their “Observations.”
