A photo book of Japanese photographer Haruo Tomiyama, "Contemporary Impressions". Haruo Tomiyama, who worked as a part-time photographer for the Asahi Shimbun after the war, made a name for himself with his work depicting the turbulent times of the period of high economic growth after the 1960s. And this book is the 6th issue of the "Modern Image" series, which is a collection of works by leading Japanese photographers at that time. Introducing an interesting text by Shoji Yamagishi, Camera Mainichi at the end of the book. "During my stay in Paris, I had the opportunity to show Henri Cartier-Bresson a Japanese photographer. The photographs of Daido Moriyama and Masahisa Fukase of the same generation said," It's like plastic. I'm not impressed. Bresson, who bluntly refused to say, "It's nonsense," concludes that "society and times aren't sick, only photographers are sick." In Toyama's series of works, the expression changed to "I couldn't do this myself. I immediately ran out of the house with my camera. There is a young man in Japan who takes such wonderful pictures. I was admired. " According to Yamagishi, "Toyama's clear and dynamic images have the power to catch our eyes on the cross-section of reality that we might miss." Vinyl cover and obi missing.
