"Legend of the Nude 1945 - 1960" is a collection of works by Japanese photographer Takashi Kishima (1920-2011). Born in California, U.S.A., he moved to Tottori Prefecture, his mother's hometown, when he was young, and enrolled in the film department at Nichigei University. After serving in World War II, he studied under Masaharu Ueda, a leading local photographer and internationally renowned photographer. He rose to prominence with portraits and nudes based on the sand dunes inherited from Ueda, and later became a leading figure in commercial photography. In the 1950s, he was active as a member of the Graphic Group, which created experimental designs and photographs with Shozo Kitadai and others, and later studied under Noriaki Kano and others, and was active in many fields. . This book is composed of Kishima's nude works, and includes images taken in a guerilla style at Sakuradamon, which caused controversy in the late 1950s, and is an avant-garde work created in a spiritual and sometimes shameless style. Many works are included.
