"Record (Akio Nagasawa Version, Signed)" is a collection of works by Japanese photographer Daido Moriyama (1938-). Since the 1960s, Moriyama has been a leading Japanese photographer, capturing fragments of the city with his rough, blurry, and out-of-focus style, overturning conventional notions of photographic expression through coarse grain and strong contrast. His approach of constantly immersing himself in the streets and vividly capturing the chance and spontaneity hidden in everyday life has been highly acclaimed both domestically and internationally. This book is a digest of issues 1-30 of the photography magazine "Record," which Moriyama himself edited and published. The collection of photographs, woven together from fragmentary motifs such as the hustle and bustle of street corners, people's gazes, signs, and dogs, layers the memories of the city like a diary, showing the accumulation of time and space. In addition to its predominantly monochrome composition, it also includes Moriyama's own text and a preface by the editor, making it an important collection that provides an overview of the artist's 50 years of activity and re-examines the possibilities of documentation and expression in the history of photography.
