Japan's world-class photographer Shomei Tomatsu's photo book "Salaam Alaikum (No Plastic Cover)". It can be said that the footprint left by Higashimatsu in the history of postwar Japanese photography is extremely large. The career, which counts nearly 60 years since the 1950s, tells everything, but the exhibition "1968 of Japanese Photography" catalog plate planned by historian of photography Ryuichi Kaneko begins in Higashimatsu and ends in Higashimatsu. He was a journalist who had been chasing "Nagasaki" and "Okinawa" for many years, and was an excellent artist who was said to be the creator of "Provoke" by Daido Moriyama and Takuma Nakahira. Shomei Tomatsu is a photographer who has been balancing news and art, journalism and (private) documentary for decades. This book is a unique work composed of plates collected locally by Higashimatsu, who traveled to Afghanistan for the coverage of the magazine "Taiyo". An exhibition and photo book entitled "Kingdom of Mud" (Asahi Sonorama, 1978) has also been published, but this is a book published by Shaken, a publisher established by Higashimatsu himself in 1968.
