Through the prewar period, the wartime, after the war, the days of reconstruction, to the years of rapid growth, Japan changed quickly and remarkably. Through those times, Ken Domon kept taking pictures of Japanese people and the reality of the society with intense passion and persistence. He also took pictures with a large-size camera of traditional culture and old temples which inspired him, and he sought, with his peculiar sense, to capture the Japanese mind which had been inherited in an unbroken line.
This complete collection contains 369 photographs including "Appearances," "Bunraku," "HIROSHIMA," "Children in Chikuho," "Muro-ji," "Pilgrimage to Ancient Temples," "Visiting Old Kilns," and other masterpieces. Through black-and-white works, you will be able to retrace the eyes of DOMON, which always demanded the truth on any theme, and sought for taking pictures of Japanese people and mind.
