This book is the final issue of ``Jam and Butter,'' which was published on the occasion of the closure of the legendary gallery ``Morris Form,'' which Kikuo Mori, an important figure in the Kansai art scene, had presided over since the 1970s. Kikuo Mori came to the United States on an immigrant ship in the 1960s and returned to Japan after graduating from the California Institute of the Arts. In the 1970s, he founded Morris Form, created a space for domestic and international artists, and published the newspaper ``Jam & Butter.'' At the same time, he co-authored the photo magazine ``Glass Eye'' with photographers Hideo Natsutani and Yoji Itokawa. It was being published. This book covers the highlights of the numerous solo exhibitions held at Morris Form, as well as introducing gallery members and films by the young Kazuo Izutsu. The style of creating a community that includes personal life and proposing new lifestyles is reminiscent of Yasuhiro Hamano, who is also famous as a producer of Tokyu Hands, etc., although in a different form. Kikuo Mori's individuality lies in the fact that his work was based on the ``70s gallery and publishing activities that turned into illusions.'' It is worth seeing. Postcard and poster included.
