Soft cover, 512 pages. 

A GIANT 512-page collection of Katsuya Terada’s RAKUGAKI sketches and illustrations.

The one and only legendary illustrator Katsuya Terada, a.k.a. RAKUGAKING (The Sketch King), well known as a pioneer who is always seeking new ideas and motifs for his drawings, has finally revealed his RAKUGAKI sketches and illustrations, long kept only in his sketch book.

Although most illustrations in this collection have appeared in Terada’s previous international exhibitions (e.g., Giant Robot in Los Angeles), never before has any book collected so many of his RAKUGAKI. This is the best and most comprehensive collection of Katsuya Terada’s pencil sketches, making it a must-have book for both his hardcore fans and also to illustrators in general.

Stubs: 2001-2010 by John Jaewon Kim

$ 10.00

Paperback, 56 pages, measures 5 x 8 inches. Edition of 100.

Uncovering a personal stash of collected ephemera can unleash a torrent of once-held ideals, longstanding hang-ups, and misdirected pursuits. In Stubs: 2001–2010, John Kim tackles head-on a stack of old concert ticket stubs spanning a decade. Each story revisits a stub, and his indie-rock-snob perspectives—at times self-deprecating, more often comedically judgmental—are punctuated with unabashed fanboy regard for pop acts and romantic interests alike.

With a backdrop of post-grad and early career pressures and relationships, the volubly recounted backstories and recollections of specific shows, from disappointment distilled (Modest Mouse at the Wiltern, 2005) to the acoustically sublime (The Breeders at the Fillmore, 2002), demonstrate how fandom and obsessions ease, or at least mark, transitions and time.
