"AD1991 (With OBI)" is a photo collection by leading Japanese photographer Keizo Kitajima. Since the late 1970s, he has frequently produced high-contrast snapshots set in Okinawa, Tokyo, and New York. After winning the Photographic Society of Japan Newcomer Award and the Kimura Ihei Award, Kitajima's eyes turned to Eastern Europe and the Soviet Union. From cities brimming with raw, earthy humanity to dignified cityscapes steeped in history and elegance, and to people anxious about the collapse of the state and an uncertain future, Kitajima's state of mind and photographic style transformed. Published in 1991, this invaluable collection marked a turning point for photographer Keizo Kitajima. It features snapshots and landscapes captured in Hong Kong, Seoul, Beijing, Tokyo, New York, London, Paris, and Eastern European countries. Rather than sniper-style snapshots of New York and elsewhere, the interplay of portraits conveying respect and dignity for people and impersonal, solid landscapes also provokes reflection on the relationship between "people" and "cities." A prologue to "PORTRAITS" and "PLACE." Comes with obi.
