Opened on August 8th, 2021, this art bookstore is located in GR8, a contemporary boutique in Harajuku, Tokyo. Yuka Takahashi of Komiyama Book Store, a long-established antiquarian bookstore in Jimbocho, Tokyo, is curating this bookstore. In a space that resembles a small hidden room of only 7.8 square meters, there are books by leading Japanese photographers such as Nobuyoshi Araki or Masahisa Fukase, art books from overseas, and vintage rare books related to fashionable fetish and queer art. Regardless of the category, the books are handpicked through Takahashi’s unique point of view. The store also introduces new projects such as zines and artworks created with domestic and international creators who have close relationships with GR8 and Takahashi.
