- HEAVY LIGHT: RECENT PHOTOGRAPHY AND VIDEO FROM JAPAN - Text by: Linda Nochlin, Akiko Otake, Christopher Phillips e Noriko Fuku - Steidl ICP - - Edited on the occasion of the important exhibition Heavy Light: Recent Photography and Video from Japan at New York's International Center for Photography. The volume recounts Japanese artistic photography, through the works of 13 Japanese artists. Four themes are explored on a visual level: the relationship between nature and urban space, customs, the search for personal identity, and children as cultural icons. Images are coupled with previously-unpublished interviews that explain the artist's working methods and their visions of contemporary culture and society. The book offers a unique vision of one of Asia's most provocative cultures. - - 312 pages - February 2008 - English
