Subject: [Frameworks] Takehisa Kosugi

Hello everyone,

This is a shot in the dark, but here goes. I'm looking for information  
about, and, especially, images of Takehisa Kosugi's performance Film  
and Film #4 (1965). It is referenced in Sheldon Renan's book  
Introduction to American Underground Film, which includes a photograph  
of the performance by Peter Moore (if someone could point me in the  
direction of a source for Moore's photographs, that might help). I  
have only found one other image of the work - a tiny, super low-res  
image on the web, which has now disappeared. I'm hoping for a  
publishable (i.e. high-res) image to accompany a text I've written  
that's being published. I'd also be interested in hearing of any print  
information/descriptions of the work; in addition to appearing in  
Renan's book, Kosugi's performance is mentioned by Hollis Frampton in  
"Lecture" and "For a Metahistory of Film," and in an essay by Peter  
Weibel in the Future Cinemas book he edited with Jeffrey Shaw. Those  
are all very brief references - if anyone knows more detailed  
discussions, ring my bell.

Thanks!
Jonathan
