A collection of photographs by contemporary Japanese photographer Haruo Toyama. After the war, Haruo Toyama worked as a commissioned photographer for the Asahi Shimbun and was famous for numerous works depicting the turbulent times of the high economic growth period since the 1960s. This book is the sixth in a series of contemporary works by Japanese photographers at that time. Introducing an interesting text by Shoji Yamagishi, a daily specialty editor at the end of the camera. "I had the opportunity to show Henri Cartier-Bresson a Japanese photographer during my stay in Paris. Photos of Daido Moriyama and Masahisa Fukase of the same generation said," It's like plastic. Bresson, who rejected it as nonsense, declared in my rebuttal that, "Society and the times are not sick, only the photographer is sick." In Toyama's series of works, the expression turned out to be myself, saying, "I couldn't stay in this way. I just jumped out of my house with a camera. There are young people in Japan who take such wonderful photos. I was amazed. " According to Yamagishi, "Toyama's clear and dynamic footage has the power to nail the eye to the real cross-section that we might overlook."
