Tom Hopman

Two softcover books in slipcase. Limited edition of 1000 copies.

Both books signed, slipcase signed and dated. Signed copies of this book are generally rare. This is probably the only copy bearing three signatures.


Monochrome photographs of Tokyo in 1995 and 2010. In 1995, when Nakafuji commented on the series of Night Crawler 2005, he said, “In the fictitious city you have carry imagination with you as currency”. After merely 15 years, the streets of Tokyo, the people, the textures have all completely changed. Nakafuji’s photographs have given us something insightful and unique. He expresses his conflicting feelings toward his native city. He produced two intense portraits of Tokyo separated by 15 years, in which the city has metamorphosed from pleasure-dome to sunless sea.

Nakafuji is part of the great Japanese photographic tradition depicting the city in gritty black and white. His terrible vision is, that the souls of the human inhabitants have been torn out, and subsumed into the dark soul of the megalopolis.
