Journey to China

Ihei Kimura
Asahi newspaper company/1974/Japanese/265*248*25


Journey to China (With OBI)" is a collection of photographs by Japanese photographer Ihei Kimura. Ihei Kimura is a pioneer of Japanese photography active from the prewar period. He was a stylish and stylish photographer born in downtown Tokyo who worked in a variety of fields, from news photography at the “Japan Studio” with Yonosuke Natori and others, to portraits of women symbolized by Hideko Takamine and others, and snaps that have been compared to those of Bresson, Doisneau, and others. This book is a collection of his works published two months after his death. The book is a collection of works published two months after his death, and contains numerous illustrations typical of Ihei Kimura, who captured the people of China and the human expressions that emerge from them. From the following comment by Kishin Shinoyama: "I only press the shutter for one or two shots. He always gets very close to a good position in a very natural way, which is almost a divine technique. This is the way Ihei Kimura photographed in China, which I saw for the first time when I accompanied him there last year. He blends in with the people, sees things from their perspective, and records them. There is no China here that has fallen prey to the propaganda of its rulers, or that has been presented in a demeaning and distorted way. The chic, gentle, mean-spirited, and penetrating eye of Mr. Kikuchi has produced this masterpiece.
