Hunter of Light: 1965-2003 - Daido Moriyama - 1st Edition, Shimane Art, 2003

About the Item

First edition, published by Shimane Art Museum, Japan, 2003. Published to accompany the retrospective exhibition of the same name and drawing together some of the most important images of Moriyama’s prolific career. The high contrast, grainy black and white aesthetic Daido Moriyama is known for, accentuates the eerie, gritty subject matters and unexplainable situations, creating a disorientating blur between documentary and fine art photography. Paperback in publisher’s French flaps. Around 320 pages, text in Japanese and English, heavily illustrated in black and white throughout. Original exhibition invite loosely inserted at back.
