This large A3-size art book features colorful new works, primarily collaborations with Fujio Akatsuka, in which Keiichi Tanaami’s imagination explodes. The cover is specially designed to transform into a large poster when opened. The power and magic of the new pictorial worlds created by Keiichi Tanaami are conveyed through the extensive use of single- and double-gate folds. In addition, Tanaami himself visited the printing site in Toyama and directly poured special-colored inks onto an offset printing press in an active form of “live printing”. (This process was conducted on December 21, 2022.) The inks overlap and mixes in the machine over time, producing pages with different printing results. It is an experimental endeavor in which each book is slightly different. The logo is stamped in gold leaf on the cloth cover. The books are finished with a codex binding that allows each page to be fully opened.
