A photo book "Northern (Popular Edition / New Edition)" by Daido Moriyama, one of Japan's leading photographers. This book is a 2016 publication and popular edition of a photo book published in conjunction with the exhibition "Introduction to Hokkaido" held in Sapporo Miyanomori Museum and other parts of Hokkaido in 2009. Moriyama, who stayed in Hokkaido for three months in 1978, had been sleeping in cardboard for nearly 30 years without printing a large number of negatives he had taken, except for contributing a part of it to a camera magazine. The exhibition began in Hokkaido in June 2009, and has continued in Hokkaido since then ("Chapter 2 / Development" and "Final Chapter"), and three volumes of the "Northern" series have been published, including this book. I am. It seems that he had gone to Hokkaido on a one-off basis before 1978, but since "Goodbye Photographs" (1972), the reality of his own photographs has diminished, and Moriyama in a slump has arrived through "Tono". It was Hokkaido. There are many snaps with a strong regionality such as the northern land and the Ainu, and although there are downtown areas, it seems that the life of Hokkaido oozes out in the cold scenery and simple daily life. An interview with Moriyama is also included at the beginning. (The popular version does not come with a DVD)
