The Daily Images of Power: On Kawara from Day to Day Video Art held at the Tokyo MetropolitanThe first issue of Parisian gallery Yvon Lamberts short lived journal, Mot pour Mot. Written by Ren Denizot, this inaugural issue was entirely devoted to the works of On Kawara. It is a fascinating early survey of the artists practice. The illustrations and facsimiles show Kawaras studio and pieces from his I am still alive, Date Paintings, I Went, I Met, and I Read series. These include telegrams and postcards sent to Lambert. Beautiful book. 121
