Signed, Miyako Ishiuchi - Hiroshima/Yokosuka - 2008

Hiroshima/Yokosuka Signed, Miyako Ishiuchi Meguro Art Museum/2008/Japanese/213*298*23 Japanese photographer Ishiuchi Miyako. She established her reputation as a photographer with her autobiographical early trilogy: ‘Swan Song: Yokosuka Story’, ‘Apartment’, and ‘Night After Night’. Subsequently, “Ishiuchi's focus shifted to the body, seeking to discern the weight of each individual's lived history” (from this book). She focused on individual body parts like limbs and scars, and later created the series Hiroshima, photographing her mother's belongings after her death in 2000 and, in 2008, clothing from the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum's collection of atomic bomb survivor garments. This book serves as the catalog for the 2008 exhibition “Ishii Miyako: Hiroshima / Yokosuka” held at the Meguro Museum of Art, tracing the full scope of Ishii's work from the late 1970s ‘Yokosuka’ series to the 2008 “Hiroshima” series. Its information is overwhelming, featuring thumbnails of representative exhibited works and content from previously published photo books, while also comprehensively including works published in magazines and books during this period. The accompanying texts are also complete. Featuring newly written essays such as a dialogue between Ishiuchi and Motoki Masaki of the Meguro Museum of Art, and critical essays by art critics Seiichi Tsuchiya and Inuhiko Yomota, this volume offers a comprehensive introduction to Ishiuchi's work up to 2008. Signed by the photographer.
