Masami Teraoka, September 7-October 30, 1991. SIGNED by both contributors, with a warm note from the artist & 22 annotated color slides
B/w portrait & 8 color plates printed one side on very stiff paper, with facing descriptions, plus 4 pp. of biography, collections, and bibliography. Stiff, off-white paper covers printed in black. 28 x 21.5 cm. This copy belonged to my late friend Joan Hugo, the extraordinarily talented and much-lamented librarian of Otis Art Institute during its glory days neighboring MacArthur Park in Los Angeles. She would have been an untiring champion of Teraoka's brilliant updating of traditional ukiyoe woodblock prints. Inscribed lightly in pencil by Lynda and Masami on the title page. The laid-in card is an announcement for the "Forty-first annual exhibition, Artists of Hawaii, 1999." It is photocopied on greenish-yellow card stock 20.2 x 12.6 cm. The verso contains a long, holograph message by Masami about the work of Ann Hamilton and other subjects. The slides are in two plastic, "archival preservers." Slight browning on cover edges and some rubbing at extremities. **Free domestic shipping with direct order.
