A photo book "Aichi Mandala The Early Works of Shomei Tomatsu" by Shomei Tomatsu, a world-renowned Japanese photographer. It can be said that Tomatsu left an extremely large mark on the history of photography in postwar Japan. His nearly 60-year career, which began in the 1950s, speaks for itself, but the exhibition "1968 of Japanese Photography" catalog, planned by photography historian Ryuichi Kaneko, begins and ends with Higashimatsu. A journalist who has been following "Nagasaki" and "Okinawa" for many years, he was also an excellent artist who is said to be the creator of "Provoke" by Daido Moriyama and Takuma Nakahira. Shomei Tomatsu is a photographer who has continued to balance reporting and art, journalism and (private) documentary for decades. This book is a collection of catalog works published at the time of the exhibition held in Aichi Prefecture, the hometown of Higashimatsu in 2006, and is a collection of early works from the 50s and 60s.
