Daido Moriyama

Yoshihiko Ueda, photographer, selected and edited 106 images of Daido’s photographs taken from 1964, the year that Daido Moriyama started his career as a photographer, until now.
For Moriyama, the city was a single vast object of desire, and the world something that loomed erotically. 106 images trace the career of a photographer who sought in each moment his own desire and never ceased questioning in a radical manner “What is photography?”

This book is published in conjunction with the exhibition of the same name at Gallery 916 where Yoshihiko Ueda opened in 2012.
