This book examines the work of US-born photographer Yasuhiro
Ishimoto (1921-2012) through its connections to Chicago, where he
lived for over a decade and returned to repeatedly throughout his
life. Long celebrated in Japan as one of the most influential
photographers of the twentieth century, Ishimoto also maintained
deep ties to his adopted home city of Chicago, where he arrived in
1945 after having been imprisoned in a US internment camp during
World War II. It was in Chicago that he developed his uniquely
modernist vision in two key ways. First, he created works that
engaged in important conversation with that of Laszlo Moholy-Nagy,
Harry Callahan, Aaron Siskind, and others at the historic Institute
of Design. Second, he immersed himself directly in the city's
neighborhoods, where he captured important social changes
reflective of broader shifts elsewhere in the United States. This
catalog--which accompanies an exhibition opening in September 2018
at the DePaul Art Museum--features both black-and-white and
full-color reproductions of key works by Ishimoto, as well as
in-depth essays by exhibition cocurators Jasmine Alinder and John
Tain.
