This book was published in conjunction with the exhibition held at The National Museum Modern Art, Tokyo in 2016. ‘Yoshimasu is one of contemporary Japan’s preeminent poets. But Yoshimasu’s activities are not limited to books of poetry. He has also produced works in a variety of genres, including radical poetry readings, multiple-exposure photography, objects such as copper sheets engraved with writing, and films that are reminiscent of road movies. Yoshimasu has been widely acclaimed as a “whole-body poet”, leading in this case to a museum exhibition.’ —excerpted from foreword
