Photograph collection of Japanese photographer Yasui Nakaji. Born in Osaka in 1903, Yasushi Nakaji is a photographer who represents the modernist photography movement of the 1930s, called "emerging photography" as well as the pre-war Kansai photography world. Joined the amateur photographer group Nanka Photography Club, and presented a series of colorful and experimental works that penetrated the contemporary photographic expressions much later, and later created avant-garde creative activities as a member of the Tanping Photography Club. It is a legendary photographer who passed away at the age of 38 by kidney failure in 1942. Daido Moriyama is so respectful that he publishes a homage to Yasui Nakaji with a homage to his book, “The Journey to Nakaji,” and describes it as “the father of modern Japanese photography”. This book is a book from Shinchosha's Photo Muses series, a spectacular book with 71 illustrations, including a collection of pocket-sized works. Here is the foundation of Japanese contemporary photography, which is second to none over Edward Weston and Albert Renque-Pachsch, who were active before the war.
