"And a Pinch of Irony with a Hint of Love" is a photobook by Yurie Nagashima, one of Japan's leading female photographers. In "empty white room (1995)," she photographed her friends and playmates; in "Family (1998)," as the title suggests, she captured the daily life of her own family; and in "Not Six (2004)," she photographed her husband. Nagashima has captured her own feelings through the depiction of people close to her. She won the Ihei Kimura Award in 2000, and more recently, she won the Kodansha Essay Award for her essay collection "Memories of My Back," demonstrating her exceptional literary talent as well as her artistic sensibility. This book is a catalog photobook published in conjunction with the major retrospective exhibition held at the Tokyo Photographic Art Museum in 2017. The illustrations are categorized as "Self-Portrait," "Family-Portraits," "empty white room," "Family," "America," "not six," "SWISS," "about home," "To Sew, To Wear, To Talk," and "Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow," and the book concludes with texts by Momo Nonaka, Takahiro Ito, and others.
