商品簡介
Limited to 30 copies. Includes a unique acrylic case with separate enclosure for two signed and numbered C-prints by the artist.

With ‘Tokyo Compression’ Michael Wolf struck a nerve. His portraits of Tokyo commuters squeezed into the glass and steel world of the underground system have been exhibited and acclaimed around the globe. The first edition of the Tokyo Compression book sold out within a few short weeks. The topic of ‘Tokyo Compression’ kept haunting Michael Wolf as well. He later returned to Tokyo to immerse himself again in its subterranean insanity – and this time, he plunged even deeper. The result is Tokyo Compression Revisited, the second, completely revised edition of the classic original, with many unreleased images and an entirely new ‘hidden track’ at the end of the book.

Undergrounds and subways have been a topic of interest for many other artists before Wolf, including famous names such as Bruce Davidson and Walker Evans. But the concept as well as the metonymy of ‘Compression’ is original. Wolf is not interested in seat cushions, graffiti, interior architecture, or their relationship to the traveller ; rather, he uses the underground system as venue of investigating the mental state and aggregate condition of a city’s people. Wolf leaves out all distractions, focusing on just faces and figures. With his radical aesthetic, he creates pictures of terrible intensity: pictures can distress and shock as they take direct aim at the inner life of average people. With his accompanying essay ‘Tokyo Subway Dreams’, Christian Sch?le delivers a gloomy diagnosis to the mass loneliness in modern megacities.
