Nakaji Yasui
Nakaji Yasui (1903-1942) was an outstanding figure in the history of Japanese photography, having first encountered the camera in his teens. Until his death from illness at the young age of 38, Yasui was highly creative and worked on an extremely wide variety of photographic techniques and styles.
In addition, the 1920s and 1940s, the period of his career, was a time of spectacular development of urban culture, but also a time when the entire country was plunged into a prolonged war. During this period, Yasui delicately captured the changing urban landscape, the people who lived in it, and even the disturbing aspects of the world by entrusting them to familiar objects.
This exhibition is based on a survey of approximately 500 vintage prints and 3,800 sheets of negatives that have survived the war and presents a more empirical portrayal of Yasui's activities through approximately 200 exhibited works.
