"Kanagawa Prefectural Photographers Association Exhibition" celebrated its 36th exhibition in 2019. The book "Document Yokohama 1945-57 Photo Document Yokohama" was published at the time of the first exhibition. The first photographer in Japan, Shimooka Renjo, opened a photo studio in 1862 at Yokohama, which is also the pioneer of photography. The opening of the Yokohama Museum of Art and the establishment of a photography department were also decided, and it was an exhibition that took place as the momentum of photography increased. The association's chairman is Yasuhiro Okumura, who has been a leader in Yokohama photography for many years, and his vice chairman is Takashi Hamaguchi, Japan's leading photojournalist, and his wife, Okumura. This catalog was edited by a gorgeous member who is also a writer, Tokiwa Toyoko. This is an impressive photo book that incorporates not only the “memorial photo” and “recorded photo” frames, but also snaps that show the atmosphere of the times, towns, and people.
