Hello all.
I wonder if I could reach some art connoisseurs through the forum, since I need some help!
I'm writing an art analysis, and I'd love to concentrate on Yuichi(also known as Yuji) Hiratsukas etching "Hypnotist" (1994).
I've got allmost all the other information I need, but I don't have the _size_ of the work. I can't find it nowhere. I have books, I have searched the internet, but just can't find it. I wonder if someone would happen to know? ..I know it's a 1% chance, but i'm getting desperate.
The work is in two parts, left and right. I would also like to know if they are meant to stay together (as a diptych) or have they been on show separately as well.
I tried finding the image from the internet but can't find anything, at least using 'romaji'. (..and no, i don't have access to hiragana/kanji)
Even if someone could find the artist's own webpage (so i could perhaps even msg himself and ask!), that would help a lot..
Domo arigato gozaimashita!

Could this be...?

If so, the size is 20 x 26 (inch)

edit: No, it cannot be as it is just one piece.
Here's pages of Yuji Hiratsuka's (平塚雄二 ひらつかゆうじ) works.
But I cannot find the one you wish to know about...

Could you at least show us an image of the work? I'm not sure what we're looking for.

Oh, good! :)
I did not go through all the works in the website as it was small hours for me...
I'm happy I can be of some help. :wave:
