Based on the retrospective exhibition organized by the Andalusian Center of Contemporary Art in Seville in March of 2007, this stunning book offers a new look at the work of Japanese photographer Daido Moriyama.
An implacable visionary of our fragmented postmodern world, Moriyama is famous not only for his stark images of urban life but also for his transformation of everyday ordinariness. The volume contains a selection of Moriyama’s highly contrasted, oddly-angled black-and-white photographs from every period of his career. The striking cover of the catalogue is the creation of noted Japanese designer Tadanori Yokoo.
The book includes a brief introductory text by José Lebrero Stals and a penetrating essay by Minoru Shimizu, as well as a couple of moving texts by Moriyama himself.
