"1990s Beijing / Peking (Signed)" is a collection of works by Japanese photographer Kazuo Kitai. Since the late 1960s, Kitai has traveled throughout Japan and abroad, carefully capturing the sense of time permeating the everyday lives of people and landscapes, rather than directly addressing major social changes. This work is set in Beijing in the 1990s, a city in the midst of rapid economic growth, and is a collection of fragments of everyday life that remain in the shadows of change: working people, traditional shops and streets, fishermen, birds, cats, and quiet street corners. Rather than capturing the city's growth and enthusiasm symbolically, Kitai's focus on the presence of its residents and the unchanging flow of time is consistent with his consistent style. This book, which captures a foreign city from a familiar distance without viewing it as special, brings to life the atmosphere and tranquility that permeated Beijing at that time.
