Inspired by the work of an earlier generation of Japanese
photographers, especially by Shomei Tomatsu, and by William
Klein’s seminal photographic book on New York, Daido Moriyama
moved from Osaka to Tokyo in the early sixties to become a
photographer. He became the leading exponent of a fierce new
photographic style that corresponded perfectly to the abrasive and
intense climate of Tokyo during a period of great social upheaval.
His black and white pictures were marked by fierce contrast and
fragmentary, even scratched, frames, which concealed his virtuoso
printing. Between June 1972 and July 1973 he produced his own
magazine publication, Kiroku, which was then referred to as Record.
It became a diaristic journal of his work as it developed. Ten
years ago he was able to resume publication of Record, which
gradually expanded in extent. To date he has published thirty
issues, a number of them including colour. The publication of
Record as a book enables work from all thirty issues to be edited
into a single sequence, punctuated by Moriyama’s own text as it
appeared in the magazines. It used to be assumed that Moriyama’s
peculiarly Japanese style was tied to his Tokyo roots. The evidence
of the last ten years demonstrates that Moriyama, a restless world
traveller, has been able to apply his unique vision to northern
Europe, southern France, the cities of Florence, London, Barcelona,
Taipei, Hong Kong, New York and Los Angeles as well as to the
alleys of Osaka, and the landscape of Hokkaido. The book ends in
Afghanistan.
