Note
This work, along with 2 other photographs on offer in this auction, are from Kunié Sugiura's first series, Cko, which she made in 1966-67 while earning her BFA at the School of The Art Institute of Chicago. Taka Ishii Gallery NY presented an exhibition of these experimental, early works in 2017. A survey of her career is currently on view at Alison Bradley Projects (New York) through 6 May 2023. Sugiura's vibrant, inventive photographs rarely come to auction.
