"Tokyo Disease (Second Printing)" is a collection of works by Japanese photographer Kazuki Setoyama. Born in 1953, Setoyama graduated from the Faculty of Letters at Waseda University, worked in the advertising industry, and then became a freelance photographer in his late twenties. He is also known as an assistant to Nobuyoshi Araki. This book is like a set of a book and a photo collection that includes Setoyama's life story and works. The photographs included in this book are the result of Setoyama's search for "subjects he can engage with on a life-sized scale, and a 'Tokyo' he can engage with on a life-sized scale" (from the book), and he has given the work the working title "Tokyo Era," depicting women who have come to Tokyo from the provinces. The women are photographed in formal attire in their respective living spaces (rooms) to "commemorate milestones in their lives in Tokyo." These works were also published in the magazine "Shashin Jidai," and the number of people photographed reached 114, with this book featuring a selection from that collection. The collection of works, in which each individual's personality shines through in the appearance of their rooms and their clothing, is a contemporary ethnological attempt that samples women living in Tokyo during the same era, and one can feel a perspective similar to that of Kyoichi Tsuzuki, who photographed "TOKYO STYLE." Second printing.
