Monographie de référence sur un travail pictural au plus près des choses en même temps qu'une réflexion sur la photographie elle-même : les séries de photographies d'objets réalisées depuis 1989 (amplis, coffres-forts, tableaux de cotation, écritoires, pierres lithographiques, tableaux électriques, versos de peintures...), avec deux essais. Cet ouvrage amplement illustré montre dans son ensemble ce qui est une véritable entreprise de saisie – de capture – des objets. Deux essais situent l'importance de cet œuvre dans la création actuelle : Eric de Chassey propose un éclairage historique sur ses développements les plus récents tandis que Catherine Perret en relève toute la portée et la profondeur théoriques.

Summary:
Eikoh Hosoe's Kamaitachi, a classic and groundbreaking body of work, was originally released in 1969 as a limited-edition photobook of one thousand copies. A unique collaboration between photographer Eikoh Hosoe and Tatsumi Hijikata, the founder of ankoku butoh dance, the work documents their visit to a farming village in northern Japan and the improvisational performance that resulted, made with the participation of local villagers and inspired by the legend of kamaitachi, a weasel-like demon who haunts the rice fields and slashes those he encounters with a sickle. In 2005, in close consultation with the artist, Aperture released a limited-edition facsimile in homage to the original. This 2009 edition now includes four never-before-published images from the classic Kamaitachi series and a new text by Japanese scholar Donald Keene, as well as essays by Eikoh Hosoe and Suzo Takiguchi. This edition was painstakingly reworked by graphic artist Ikko Tanaka, designer of the original volume, shortly before his death.
