Asian photographer

The photographic book 'Tehran North' by Iranian-born photographer Shirana SHABBAZI is a subjective road movie taken from a moving car at night through the Iranian capital in 2015, offering a kaleidoscopic black-and-white vision of Tehran's urban landscape

'CAMP 1979' by Keizo KITAJIMA documents the activities in the experimental space of the same name co-founded by Keizo KITAJIMA, Seiji KURATA & Daido MORIYAMA. Typical for his style is the coarse grain and very strong contrast and his choice of subjects.

Jin OHASHI is one of the most popular and important photographers in Japan today. This photo book, nominated for the Paris Photo Aperture Foundation Award 2013 is a fundamental work that reflects the life of an individual and not of society as a whole.

The photo booklet 'By the Sea' - a narrow and large-format - contains a collection of landscape photos that the OGAWA took during various stays on the Japanese coast in winter. In addition to works in b/w, like in 'Shimagatari', we see here works in color

Captured within the volume 'Flower' by Japanese photographer Sakiko NOMURA, former assistant of Nobuyosi ARAKI, are an array of images of flowers, nude portraits and photographed landscapes all exuding fleshly and sensuous emotions throughout each page.

The images in 'Berlin' by Daisuke YOKOTA exhibit his signature experimental processing techniques whilst also demonstrating unconventional shooting methods like re-appropriating thermographic & infrared cameras and rendering the images onto analog film.

'Yokohama Gorakuso' contains b/w architecture photos, but Miyako ISHIUCHI makes from them soul full portrait photographs of a building. A secret history of this building complex and in certain ways an answer to her first photo volume, 'Apartment' (1978).

The photo volume 'Sight' by Yoko ASAKAI contains portraits of people from all over the world watching a film at home. The relationship between looking and being looked at is explored. The concentrated-portrait subjects seem to be unaware of the camera.
