A collection of works by Japanese photographer Takuma Nakahira. Needless to say, one of the masterpieces of postwar Japanese photo books. The following is an excerpt from the text: "I used to publish a douujinshi of photographs with five friends. What we aimed for was not to require the completeness of each photograph, and one by one. It is not to ask for a heavy role for photography, such as making the photograph of the world look like the whole world, and to stack up a number of fragmentary images toward "silence". At that time, it was argued that photography could cease to be a "work" and become an anonymous material prepared for "the coming words", but that was too much. It may be something that came to mind. This "silence" may not finally be "worded" .... But then the photographer will never be born "words" I must be prepared to take my own name as a dreamer who keeps taking endless photographs. " This book is a reprint version published by Steidl & Edition 7L in 2001 (when "Japanse Box" was released).
