<\/a>Title: Japan : A Self Portrait<\/strong><\/p>\n

By: Osam Hiraki, Alain Sayag, Keeichi Takeuchi
\nPublisher: Flammarion; (October 29, 2004)
\nISBN: 2080304631
\nHardcover, 216 pages<\/p>\n

This is a major work featuring B\/W works produced during the post-war period of 1945 to 1964 by well-known Japanese photographers. They are Ken Domon, Hiroshi Hamaya, Tadahiko Hayashi, Eikoh Hosoe, Yasuhiro Ishimoto, Kikuji Kawada, Ihee Kimura, Shigeichi Nagano, Ikko Narahara, Takeyoshi Tanuma, and Shomei Tomatsu.<\/p>\n

It’s mainly documentary photos and while many are already well-known and published, there are some that are rarely seen. Everything is in English and a complete book review is forthcoming. It is really a beautiful book.<\/p>\n

I was one of the consultants for this book, and my name and Web site are mentioned in the Acknowledgements.<\/p>\n

Japanese and French versions are also available. See sample photos at Amazon.com.
