A photo book "Tokyo / Tokyo" published by Bijutsu Shuppansha in 1966 by photographer Hyonchi Cho. There is no publication history in various camera magazines, and the only career is "Born in Nagoya in 1940 and graduated from Tokyo College of Photography in 1964." However, as introduced in "The Japanese Photobook 1912–1990" (2017) compiled by Ryuichi Kaneko and others, it is a wonderful collection of works. The content is a snap taken in Tokyo, but the intense close-up and monochrome high contrast are impressive. It has an impact reminiscent of William Klein and Elsken, and the rich gravure printing further enhances the charm of the work. In a sense, it's a work of this era, but there aren't many works that make such a strong impression with just snaps. It is a book that can be said to be an unknown masterpiece. In addition, Bijutsu Shuppan published the famous book "Map" by Kikuji Kawada in 1965 and Yasuhiro Ishimoto's "Chicago, Chicago" in 1969. We publish a valuable photo book. (* According to the materials of Tokyo College of Photography, there is a description of "1966 Noriyuki Sasaki Tokyo Publishing" as an alumnus activity)
