Daido Moriyama (1938-) created a stir in the Japanese photography world as a member of PROVOKE in the late 1960s, capturing street corners such as Shinjuku in black-and-white snapshots. Born in Osaka in 1938, he worked for a commercial design company while still in high school, and later became an independent graphic designer, but since the early 1960s he has pursued photography. After moving to Tokyo, he worked as an assistant to Eikoh Hosoe before becoming independent as a photographer in 1964. This book "Daido Moriyama 1965-" was published at the time of Moriyama's exhibition held at the gallery "Gallery 916" run by Yoshihiko Ueda, a photographer who is also acclaimed worldwide. Includes 106 works compiled by Ueda himself from 1964, when Moriyama became independent, to the present. While interweaving monochrome and color, you can feel Ueda's certain sense as an "editor". Like this book, Akaakasha has also published a photo book by Taiji Arita and Kozo Miyoshi, edited by Ueda and art directed by Hideki Nakajima. Comes with an obi.
