FRAGMENTS - Daido Moriyama
Moriyama's elliptical, collaged style of photographs--reminiscent of both Nobuyoshi Araki and Eikoh Hosoe--is less known in America, but has actually been tremendously influential in his homeland. This retrospective monograph--complete with a uniquely imprinted, silvery slipcover--flits back and forth from geometric abstraction to darkly, bizarre scenes of urban fires, chaotic materialism, and sex. Quarto in slipcase. 16 pp. booklet with text in Japanese and English by Noi Sawaragi laid-in. 83 black and white plates as well as four color plates published on the occasion of the 1998 retrospective exhibition at Tokyo's Parco Gallery. Near fine in photo-illustrated wrappers and silver embossed slipcase
Published by Art Data, 1998 (signed edition)
