"Ginza Tokyo 1964" is a collection of works by Japanese photographer Akira Ito. This is a book published by Morioka Shoten in Ginza, Tokyo. Ito was born in 1943 and died in 2015. Born in Osaka, graduated from Tokyo College of Photography, worked at the school, and then became a freelance photographer. Although he continued for nearly ten years, he moved to the pottery town of Mashiko, and since 1980 he has been a potter. Speaking of 1964, the Tokyo Olympics were held, and Japan's social and economic recovery in a period of 20 years after the war was appealed to the world. On the other hand, the scars of the war were everywhere, and Ginza had a chaotic aspect where the urban side and the postwar side were mixed. This is a valuable collection of works that captures the city of Ginza from a journalistic perspective and a perspective that reveals the artistic sense of Shomei Tomatsu.
