Tatsumi Kumashiro

[Jonathan Crow]

There is (was?) a great web site on Kumashiro, Tanaka and Roman Porno in
general at:


http://www.illumin.co.uk/ica/Bulletin/film/romanporno/


It was designed in conjunction with a ICA retrospective some years back.
The site, which had exhaustive biographical info on Kumashiro, seems to have
some history of going up and down.  It's down now but perhaps with some
ribbing, the good people at ICA will put this resource back on-line.
