Book introduction Vol.1

Our store mainly handles art books such as overseas illustration books and photo books, as well as independent magazines related to music and art. It may seem difficult to understand at first glance, but in reality, all of them are friendly. So, I will introduce it little by little.

This time we will be introducing "Ordinary Magazine," a photo book-like magazine that you can enjoy intuitively .
Ordinary Magazine Cover
It's a magazine with the concept of creating extraordinary works using ordinary things, so the theme is ordinary every time.
It might be easier to understand if you think about it in an Ogiri sense... Ordinary Magazine01
The themes so far have been about "ordinary" things that are all around us, such as sponges, cotton swabs, and straws. The theme of this 10th issue is CD.
There are many unusual photos using CDs, such as a CD in a room, a CD stuck in a pile of dirt, and a dreamy work that uses reflections.
More than 20 artists are participating, including John Yuyi and Yumiko Utsu.

Ordinary Magazine is planned by London-based artist Max Siedentopf. When he published " TOILETPAPA ," a reproduction of TOILETPAPER modeled after his father , and directed the music video for musician Sigrid's "Mine Right Now," trouble arose in which he was unable to perform due to problems such as flight delays. However, he is an idea-man artist whose ideas are very interesting, such as acting as a substitute for the lead role and averting a crisis.

We have a lot of books that are enjoyable in some way, with no fixed way of looking at them, and each person enjoys them in their own way.
