Record No. 52

Daido MORIYAMA

Publisher: Akio Nagasawa Publishing

Japanese master photographer and living legend Daido Moriyama returns with a new issue of his ongoing “Records” series. A journal in essence, in his “Record” series Moriyama continues to publish his life in photography. In issue number 52, Moriyama’s past months unfurl as a cacophonic series of chance encounters, moments and observations made in Tokyo’s streets, buildings and skies. The combination and layout of his images – but also the very images themselves – convey an almost oppressive sense of the never-ending energy of life that turn Tokyo into the chaotic, irresistible, inexhaustible source of Moriyama’s snapshots.

“On the occasion of the publication of volume 50 of the Record journal, my works were shown in a long-term slide show event at the AKIO NAGASAWA Gallery in Ginza, from late May until early October.
I visited the venue several times since the start of this program, placed myself in the middle of the 5,000 miscellaneous images that were projected onto every inch of the gallery’s walls by seven projectors, and enjoyed the strange experience of standing there, isolated from daily life, and being hit from all sides by the showers of light … The strange and chaotic images from Tokyo, Marrakech and New York that were perpetually projected onto the walls, had disconnected from the one who shot them, to pursue the anonymous notion that is supposedly inherent in a photograph. It had become totally irrelevant that I was the one who made them, and before I knew it, the projected images transformed into the very ‘spirit’ that is photography itself.”
― excerpt from Daido Moriyama’s afterword
