"Daido Moriyama"
2000-08-05 until 2000-10-29
Fogg Museum, Harvard
Cambridge, MA,
USA
Moriyama’s photographs detail the streets of Japan’s major cities; among his
city images are those shot in underlit bars, clubs, streets and alleyways
where the subject’s movement creates a blurred suggestion of form rather
than a distinct figure. Following its presentation at the Fogg Art Museum, the
exhibition will travel to other North American and European venues.
Organized by the San Francisco
Museum of Modern Art, the exhibition
explores the work of Moriyama, an
important Japanese photographer
and features nearly two hundred
black-and-white images and a major
Polaroid piece that together examine
the relationship of postwar Japanese
society to Western, and in particular
to American, influences.
