Things found in everyday landscapes are captured with a somewhat uncanny presence.

This is a collection of works that engraves Asako Narahashi's early gaze, different from her water-themed works that later led to \"half awake and half asleep in the water.\" It is a book that gazes at the abnormal lurking in the city, at the boundary between the ordinary and the extraordinary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eSigned by the artist.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e[Title] NU・E \/ NARAHASHI Asako PHOTOGRAPHS 1992-1997\u003cbr\u003e[Publisher] Sohkyu-Sha \u0026amp; Mole\u003cbr\u003e[Publication Date] November 22, 1997\u003cbr\u003e[Number of Pages] 120 pages\u003cbr\u003e[Size] Approx. 230 x 288 x 15mm \/ 921g\u003cbr\u003e[Format] Hardcover\u003cbr\u003e[Language] Japanese, English\u003cbr\u003e[Title Reading] NUE\u003cbr\u003e[Author\/Editor] Asako Narahashi \/ Author, Hajime Hashimoto \/ Design, Akemi Sato \/ Design, Michitaka Ohta \/ Editor\u003cbr\u003e[Printing] Tada Printing Co., Ltd. \/ Printing\u003cbr\u003e[ISBN] -\u003cbr\u003e[Condition] Used, signed and dated on the endpaper [6] Good to Average (Cover: slight stains on back, Body: slight stains on top edge)\u003cbr\u003e[Accessories] -\u003cbr\u003e[Featured in] -\u003cbr\u003e[Related Exhibitions] \"NU・E\" (03FOTOS, 1992-1997), \"NU・E : New Selections from 1992–1997 Exhibitions @03FOTOS\" (The Third Gallery Aya, 2017)\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003ch3\u003eAsako Narahashi (born 1959)\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eBorn in Tokyo in 1959.
