Description

“The Eye of Ihei Kimura stands as the first serious look at the photographer’s contribution to photographic expression in a postwar context, as acknowledged by contemporaneous photographers…This photobook, with its superlative printing, is the nearest we can come to understanding how Kimura’s work should be seen…After his death in 1975 the publisher of Asahi Camera named a prestigious award for new photography in his honor, thereby making him an undisputed icon in Japanese photography.” Ryuichi Kaneko and Ivan Vartanian in their reference work on Japanese Photobooks, “Japanese Photobooks of the 1960s and 70s” — 196 BN; rileg. brossura. Editore: Asahi Shimbunsha, Tokyo, 1970.
