WRAP

This is a poster for a paper show designed by Ikko Tanaka and photographed by Nakamoto Noritoyo in 1988. Why do I love this? 
- light and shadow, texture, colors
- integration of word as image
- word doing what it says/relationship of form to content
- composition: neg/pos space, straight and angular lines of letters with crinkly and random lines of paper
Interesting - I mean I can look at this image again and again without growing bored
