Publisher's blurb:
Since the early days of photography, certain cities have become inextricably intertwined with the images taken by great photographers Eugene Arget in turn-of-the-century Paris; Berenice Abbott in 1930s New York; Ed Ruscha in a late-sixties Los Angeles. While Daido Moriyama documented the disaffection and dissipation of Tokyo in the 1960s through the '80s, Takashi Homma deftly picks up the baton with a contemporary portrait of the modern-day metropolis that is both cinematic and complex
For over a decade, Homma has turned his lens toward both Tokyo's suburban environs and the urban center. His vision of Tokyo navigates a finely nuanced line between sterility and sentimentality, presenting a sleek, contemporary vision of a postmodern megalopolis populated by a young generation of video game aficionados and enervated fashionistas, but also the site of cutting-edge architectural experiments and quiet rooftop gardens.
While he has published extensively inside his native Japan, this is Homma's first volume to be published for an international audience. Takashi Homma: Tokyo compiles selections from each of the artist's previously published titles about the city, including Tokyo Suburbia, his seminal work now considered a contemporary classic.
Collected together, the series unfold like a collection of engaging and compelling short stories about life in contemporary Tokyo. An essay by cultural critic Ivan Vartanian discusses the work in the context of contemporary Japanese society and photography.
TAKASHI HOMMA was born in 1962 in Tokyo. He studied photography at Nihon University College of Art but left in 1984 to take a job as an in-house photographer at a Tokyo advertising agency. In 1991, he moved to London to work as a photographer for i-D Magazine. In 1999, he was awarded a Kimura Ihei Commemorative Photography Award for the project Tokyo Suburbia (1998).
Homma currently lives in Tokyo.
About Takashi Homma:
Takashi Homma (b.1962) is a Japanese photographer born and based in Tokyo. He studied photography at Nihon University College of Art, and left in 1984 to take a job as an in-house photographer at a Tokyo advertising agency. In 1991 he moved to London for two years to work as a photographer for i-D Magazine.
Homma’s work examines the nuances of Tokyo’s suburban districts, its urban centre, its surrounding landscapes, and its people. Homma's pictures tell a tender and discreet story of Tokyo discourse. He observes and documents sterile contemporary architecture, well-groomed highways, hidden rooftop gardens, desolate chain restaurants, quiet car parks, stray teenagers, children at play, objects in a home, snow-capped mountains and hypnotic seas.
Homma has published several photography books throughout his career. In 1999 he was awarded a Kimura Ihei Commemorative Photography Award for his project, ‘Tokyo Suburbia’ (1998), his formative work now considered a classic. Homma had his first solo museum exhibition, New Documentary, showing at three museums in Japan from 2011-2012.
