- Lot Description
Daido Moriyama is a renowned Japanese photographer known for his distinct and gritty black-and-white images capturing urban life and street scenes. He was born on October 10, 1938, in Ikeda, Osaka, Japan, and is considered one of the most influential photographers of the post-war era. Moriyama emerged in the 1960s during the Provoke movement, a Japanese photography movement that sought to challenge conventional notions of photography and explore new forms of expression. His work embodies the movement's experimental and confrontational spirit, pushing the boundaries of photography as an art form. Moriyama's photography often features blurred, grainy, and high-contrast images that reflect the raw and chaotic nature of the city. He frequently captures the energy, contradictions, and isolation of urban environments, presenting a fragmented and subjective view of reality. His subject matter ranges from anonymous faces in the crowd and seedy nightlife scenes to everyday objects and abstract forms found in the urban landscape. Moriyama's images are marked by their spontaneity and a sense of voyeurism, as if he is capturing fleeting moments and hidden aspects of urban life. Throughout his career, Moriyama has published numerous photobooks, which have become highly regarded for their visual impact and groundbreaking style. Some of his notable works include "Japan: A Photo Theater" (1968), "Farewell Photography" (1972), and "Tales of Tono" (2012). Daido Moriyama's photographs have been exhibited worldwide and are held in prestigious collections. He has received several awards and honors for his contributions to photography, including the Infinity Award for Lifetime Achievement from the International Center of Photography in 2019. Moriyama's work continues to inspire and influence photographers globally, and his unique visual language has left an indelible mark on the field of contemporary photography. His captivating and provocative images invite viewers to experience the complexity and beauty found within the urban landscape.
