Photographer Atsuko Tanaka’s latest zine, Boom Bap Echoes, is now available at FED in limited quantities.

This work reimagines portraits of rappers photographed in New York during the 1990s and 2000s through the cyanotype process. Fixed by sunlight, the deep blue images embrace an element of chance, giving each piece its own unique character and expression.
The blue-toned photographs evoke the atmosphere and memories of that era. Moments from hip-hop’s golden age emerge once again in a new form.

Each copy comes packaged in a special envelope sealed with a wax stamp.

Who is Atsuko Tanaka?

Photographer Atsuko Tanaka @atsukoholic was born in Tokyo. She moved to the U.S. in 1991 as a teenager and studied photography in California before relocating to New York City, where she quickly gained recognition for her images of hip-hop artists. Equipped with a distinct sensibility that captured subtle expressions and moods of her subjects, it didn't take long before Atsuko found herself shooting the likes of Beyonce, Eminem and Jay-Z and, as well as album cover art for popular Japanese artists. 

While continuing to photograph celebrities, artists and street fashion for both American and Japanese media, in 2006 Atsuko was named one of the "100 Most Respected Japanese in the World" by Newsweek Japan.

In fall 2011, Atsuko moved her base back to Tokyo after two decades in the States. She still frequently travels abroad for work and inspiration.

Don’t buy for restaurant industry
Size: 10.5, Color: Black, Size: 10.5, Color: Black
Good looking shoes, fairly comfortable and good value based on the description shared, so I don’t feel it’s fair to rate them lower than 4 stars. I had high hopes for them based on previous reviews from others saying they wore them in the food and beverage industry that mentioned their quality and durability, however I strongly recommend looking elsewhere if you do. I purchased these to wear working in a full service upscale restaurant and in less than two months have managed to have torn the material on the middle exterior section and the bottoms of the shoes are already completely worn down. Good design, but the durability needs to be improved if they’re to hold up for that industry.
