A rare and stylish square-format monograph by Daido Moriyama (森山大道, b. 1938), one of the most celebrated figures in post-war Japanese photography and a pioneer of the iconic are, bure, boke (rough, blurry, out-of-focus) aesthetic. Book 1: moriyama daido t-82 (2006) About the Book & Work Published in 2006 by Nagai Gallery / Book Shop M, t-82 features a curated selection of Moriyama’s signature black-and-white street snapshots. The images are marked by his trademark high-contrast tones, gritty textures, and sharp visual rhythm, capturing transient, shadowy fragments of the Japanese urban landscape. The elegant, compact square layout elevates the sequencing of the images, offering an intimate look into Moriyama's continuous, restless wandering through urban space.

Book 2: Transit (2002) About the Book & Artist Known worldwide for his iconic "are, bure, boke" (rough, blurred, out-of-focus) high-contrast black-and-white style, Moriyama turns his restless lens away from his familiar Tokyo streetscapes for this project. Transit compiles a series of striking, fragmentary snapshots taken across various American cities (including New York, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Boston, Lowell, and Santa Monica) as well as Tijuana, Mexico. Rather than classic travel photography, Moriyama captures the fleeting, transient nature of urban spaces, street-side detritus, and human presence with a cinematic, highly atmospheric perspective.
