Daido Moriyama - Japan, a Photo Theater II - 森山大道 続にっぽん劇場写真帖 , Asahi Sonorama, 1978, Tokyo

 

Hardcover with dustjacket,

"In his first exhibit, "Japan: a Photo Theater I," Moriyama recorded the lives and expressions of traveling actors, as the title implies. In this book, however, all photographs were taken in Tokyo. In these he takes objects existing in the world such as posters, magazines, mannequins, etc., which other people see as mass media, and places them on his own stage as though they were his own objects. When we look at these photographs...the reflection of his soul, we are made to notice what exactly we are looking at in daily life." (From the essay by Shoji Yamagishi)
