Hardcover. Condizione: New. One of the most important figures in the history of modern Japanese photography. Yasuzo Nojimaâs works range from kaiga shugi shashin (pictorial photography) to shink shashin (new/straight photography) of the early twentieth century.

Nojima was also known as an enthusiastic art lover, opening a gallery in Tokyo at his own expense, holding exhibitions of works by up-and-coming artists. This catalogue is composed of works from the Nojima Collection at Museum of Modern Art of Kyoto.…
