"What Yanagi pays attention to are the cultural codes embedded within the great architecture and passageways (arcades) that have frozen the atmosphere of modernism amidst the acceleration of the period. The Elevator Girls, like apparitions, appear as its peculiar signs. This fabricated space of modernism, stripped of a time axis, is simultaneously akin to a future city where all excitement has faded. Yanai's Elevator Girls reside in both a past and future time-space." (Aomi Okabe). White wooden box with light smudeges.…

White lacquer wooden box is Fine. From the publisher: "In The White Casket, Japanese artist Miwa Yanagi has created a bizarre fantasy world inhabited by department store 'elevator girls.' In upscale Japanese department stores, the elevator girl performs the role of a hostess, directing customers to their destinations while lending an aura of elegance to the shopping experience. The position of elevator girl is a highly prized one; those holding this position are selected by management, and are expected to exude youth, innocence and beauty. In White Casket -- the collective title for the work as presented here -- Yanagi takes advantage of digital technology to create virtual spaces composed of elements from several different locations, creating elaborate settings in which the elevator girls live as 'prisoners in paradise.' Miwa Yanagi is a pioneer in contemporary photo-based art. Her work is included in important public and private collections throughout Japan, the US, and Europe. White Casket documents this well-known body of work in a large-format, beautifully-reproduced monograph." Signed by Author. …
