Review — SAGAWA Issei (1949-) is the famous 'Celebrity Cannibal' who killed, raped and ate a young Dutch woman in 1977 in Paris, was deemed insane two years later, deported to Japan and freed... This exceptional collection entails two parts. On one hand, 5 color prints titled and signed by Sagawa, and 1 polaroid, that include curious & ominous self-portraits (one funnily titled 'Stupid'), two-shots & nudes. On the other hand, 5 b&w signed prints from a session with a Dutch girl (!) named Ingrid for his New Year Card for 1992 (of which there are here two copies, one signed).
