Description

This 2019 edition by Bookshop M and Getsuyosha is a high-quality reproduction of Moriyama’s seminal 1982 work. It features 100 full-bleed black-and-white images that utilize deep blacks and brilliant whites to re-examine quotidian scenes. The English version includes a separate 40-page booklet containing detailed information for each photograph, an exclusive commentary by Moriyama reflecting on his “hiatus” years, and an interview originally published in “Shashin Jidai” in 1981. It is an essential volume for understanding the mid-career evolution of Japan’s most influential living photographer.
