At Rathole you can pick up a DVD of the 3000 image/4 hour (or is it 4000 images over 3 hours?) video installation of the sky above Araki’s balcony -limited to an edition of THREE- for a mere 2,100,000 yen per disc.
I personally would prefer one of the screen prints of a painting of his wife which are hung in the smaller gallery to the side.
