Art Space Tokyo acts as your 272 page personal guide and interpreter, connecting you with the neighborhoods and figures behind some of the most inspiring art spaces in this colossal city.

Each of the featured spaces has been rendered as a striking illustration by Nobumasa Takahashi. The book covers art spaces in neighborhoods all over Tokyo.

The neighborhood surrounding each art space has been meticulously mapped with recommendations for the best food, coffee and sights to enjoy in an afternoon of art viewing.

I contributed an essay to this book which discusses graffiti artist Barry McGee’s influence on a generation of young graffiti writers working in Tokyo, and looks at the way in which graffiti articulates the urban environment of Tokyo.

The book features a UV gloss screenprint on the cover, abundant use of rich black overprinting on the interiors and a wacky page numbering system that slides across the interior of the book sequentially. With sturdy fold-in covers, a tough perfect-bind (sewn & glued), and weighing in at 200 pages, this book took a lot of effort. I acted as co-editor of the book as well as book designer.
