In 2017 Official catalogue of the Wols exhibition held at the Kawamura Memorial DIC Museum of Art (Chiba Prefecture).
This book delves deeply into the world of Wols, a talented painter, photographer, and poet who was involved in a wide range of activities.

Wols was active in Paris during World War II and had a major influence on postwar European art. His work is characterized by a unique worldview that looks deeply into the inner mind, and is a mixture of abstract yet organic forms, chaos and order.

This book comprehensively includes a wide range of his representative oil paintings, watercolors, photographs, drawings, etc. In particular, it traces the trajectory of his creative work, which developed from photographs taken on the street to abstract paintings that evoke a cosmic expanse, from the perspective of "from the street to the universe."
