Add to basketDrawing Restraint: Volume IV is a limited edition artist's book by Matthew Barney, created in conjunction with his film Drawing Restraint 9. The book features surreal drawings inspired by the film's nautical setting aboard a whaling vessel in the Sea of Japan. Barney's intricate illustrations evoke themes of Japanese ceremonies and aquatic transformations, reflecting the film's exploration of cultural rituals and bodily constraints. The publication includes the first published images from Barney's subsequent project, Drawing Restraint 13, filmed at the Barbara Gladstone Gallery in 2006. This project continues Barney's interest in dramatic encounters between Westerners and Japan, with Barney portraying General Douglas MacArthur in performances that draw upon significant moments from the late stages of World War II. Produced in a limited edition of 1,000 copies, the book is a fine press production, featuring facsimiles of drawings and letters printed in letterpress on Japanese paper, accompanied by lush duotone plates. The volume is case-bound, reflecting the best traditions of fine press printing. Condition: New. Still sealed in original shrinkwrap.
