Shoji Ueda - Blowing Wind 吹き抜ける風 - 2007

Shoji Ueda – “Blowin’ Wind.” A rare and poetic photobook by Shoji Ueda, one of Japan’s most celebrated photographers. Known for his surreal “staged” compositions in the Tottori sand dunes, Ueda presents here a mature meditation on wind, time, and memory. The black-and-white photographs capture the serene landscapes of western Japan and the quiet presence of human figures, balancing minimalism and emotion with a precision that defines Ueda’s unmistakable style. With its delicate tones and lyrical atmosphere, Blowin’ Wind stands as one of Ueda’s final masterpieces— a contemplative journey through the beauty of ordinary life shaped by the invisible touch of the wind. Now out of print and highly sought after, this volume is regarded as a cornerstone of postwar Japanese photography. Please check the photos for details of condition. A serene and hauntingly beautiful book—an essential addition for collectors of Shoji Ueda and fine art photography.
