Gunji #[nn]

Two powerfully built men dominate the clean white cover of this 2005 H&O Éditions release — one standing tall in a black tank top, his hand resting firmly on the head of the other, a shirtless, broad-shouldered figure crouched before him. Gengoroh Tagame's linework is bold and precise, conveying both physical intensity and a charged dynamic between the two figures. A striking introduction to Tagame's work for French readers, Gunji carries the unmistakable confidence of an artist at the height of his craft.
