A photo book by Japanese photographer Yasuhiro Ishimoto (1921-2012). Born in San Francisco, lived in Kochi from 1924 to 1939, returned to the United States alone, studied architecture at Northwestern University in Chicago, and then founded the Institute of Design (commonly known as the New Bauhaus in 1952, which merged with the Illinois Institute of Technology in 1949). ) Graduated from the photography department. After returning to Japan, he stayed in Chicago from 1958 to 1961, and in 1969 published the photo book ``Chicago, Chicago,'' a collection of photos taken during his student days and during his two stays after graduation. It is highly acclaimed as a masterpiece in the history of Japanese photography. This book includes photos that were not published in the previous book, as well as photos taken when he visited Chicago again in 1982. His excellent design sense and sophisticated sensibility can of course be confirmed in this book. "Chicago, Chicago" is rare and may be difficult to obtain, but one of the appeals of this book is that you can easily enjoy Ishimoto's photographs from the same period. Libroport hardcover edition.
