"Koji Enokura: The Works of Photography 1972-1994" is an exhibition catalogue by Japanese artist Koji Enokura (1942-1995). Known as one of the leading figures of the Mono-ha movement, Enokura explored the relationship between matter, space, and the human body through installations using everyday materials such as cloth, paper, stone, and wood. The photographs used in his creative process occupy an important position that goes beyond mere documentation and can be called the works themselves. This book comprehensively covers the photographs he produced over the 20 years from 1972 until just before his death. By capturing traces of installation and physical actions, he keenly explores the relationship between matter and humans. The accompanying exhibition catalogue includes texts that elucidate his creative intentions and installation views from the time, highlighting how integral photography was to Enokura's artistic expression. The images that record materials and actions leave a vivid sense of time and space, making this a book that continues to raise fresh questions even after his death.
