A collection of works by Japanese photographer Yasuhiro Ishimoto (1921-2012). "Journalism" is the mainstream of photography in the 1940s and 1950s. During this period that straddled the war, there are basically many "humanity" works, such as documentaries that include many news elements such as Ken Domon and Ihei Kimura, from war and news journalism by Yonosuke Natori and others. However, I can imagine that the impact of Yasuhiro Ishimoto, who returned to Japan during that time, was considerable. Of course, there were few students who received design education like the Bauhaus, and there were not many photographers with a sharpened aesthetic sense who grasped the object as "modeling", so in the 1950s "Katsura Imperial Villa" And the first book "One day somewhere" gave a big impression. This is a catalog published at the exhibitions held at the Tokyo Metropolitan Museum of Photography, Tokyo Opera City Art Gallery, and Kochi Prefectural Museum of Art to commemorate the 100th anniversary of Yasuhiro Ishimoto's birth. It is a large 300-page book that includes articles. Second edition published in 2021.
