Book Launch and Slideshow by Q. Sakamaki

“WAR DNA” Book Launch and the slideshow by Q. Sakamaki

At the Bubble Lounge,
228 West Broadway, New York, New York. Ph: 212-431-3433.
Slideshow features singles from the book “WAR DNA”, as well as stories from Turkey, Sri Lanka, and Rio, Brazil.
The door opens at 5pm, and the slideshow at 6:30pm and 8pm.

This book is about war. The theme is life and death. Humans have never experienced an era without war in our history; wars have always loomed over us, as if we are genetically predisposed to conflict. Sakamaki offers insight into global conflicts with photographs from seven deadly settings – Israel/ Palestine, Haiti, Afghanistan, Kosovo, Sri Lanka, Liberia, and Iraq, focusing on the people affected by war, intimately and poetically. Bilingual texts in English and Japanese.

hey, where can I pick a copy up online ? Id like to buy one, the book looks great.

Hi Eric,
Thanks for your concern.
You can buy it through Amazon.Japan. For the easy way, go to the following site. http://www.reduxpictures.com/books.html
It’s actually the site of my agency Redux photographer’s published books. You can find my book on the top, then click “Amaozon.japan.” You will find my book cover on the Amazon-Japan site, and click the icon or box of “Add to shopping Cart,” on the right. Then follow the direction. It is described in English. But the layout includes Japanese. If you are confused, let me know.
Also, in case, I want to give you the number of ISBN. It is: 978-4-09-682018-6.
It is another way to buy my book. Go to www.amaon.co.jp
Then put the number of ISBN, or WAR DNA and Q, in the searching box on the top area. (Also, you should click in English on the menu bar, since originally it is Japanese mode. ) Then you will find my book site. Then just follow the direction, please.

I hope you are not confused.

Best,
