Description: Takuma Nakahira (1938–2015) co-founded Provoke magazine in 1968 alongside Daido Moriyama and Koji Taki. His debut photobook For a Language to Come (1970) is now one of the most collected Japanese photobooks in the world. In 1977, Nakahira suffered severe amnesia following a health crisis — effectively erasing his memory, his critical writings, and his theoretical framework. What followed was a second career: slower, clearer, more documentary, shot in Yokohama and Okinawa. Two completely distinct bodies of work. One photographer. This 496-page catalog, published by the National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo (MOMAT) for his 2024 retrospective, is the most complete survey of his career ever produced. It covers both phases in full, with scholarly essays by Matthew S. Witcovsky (Art Institute of Chicago) and leading Japanese critics. — Title: Nakahira Takuma: Burn — Overflow (中平卓馬 火―氾濫) Publisher: Live Art Books / National Museum of Modern Art, Tokyo Year: 2024 | Pages: 496 | Format: Softcover, A4 Language: Japanese / English essays CONDITION As new.
