"Color 1 & 2" is a photobook by Daido Moriyama, one of Japan's leading photographers. Moriyama's signature style involves wandering through cities, continuously taking snapshots, and depicting the ominous atmosphere lurking within urban environments through extreme close-ups, fragmented frameworks, and high-contrast brushstrokes. His work, finished with a rough yet stylish quality through grainy textures and shimmering finishes, is synonymous with Moriyama. Pursuing his own unique photographic expression, his avant-garde and experimental yet deeply human style is a symbol of post-war Japanese photography, which has received high praise worldwide. This book is a two-volume set consisting of Moriyama's first color photobook, published in 1993 by Michitaka Ota's Sokyusha, and its sequel, "Color 2," published in 1999. Both are limited to 600 copies.
