Inge Dick / Osamu Nakajima

Sometimes art books sneak in here. That’s not a bad thing. A little art never killed anyone. Like, this one is the definitive record of the dialogue between Inge Dick, an Austrian photographer and painter born in 1941, and Osamu Nakajima (1937–2013), a Japanese sculptor who moved to Austria in 1969 and became a defining force in the Austrian art scene. It moves beyond a simple exhibition list to provide an in-depth study of the “White on White” aesthetic that both artists explored. A nice showcase of their shared pursuit of reduction, light, and silence. From the library of Toshi Katayama.
