"Olele Olara" is a photobook by Japanese photographer Kishin Shinoyama. This book was published in 1971 when Shinoyama was just 30 years old, a few years before his early masterpieces "Sunny Day" and "House" from the 1970s. It is a human documentary capturing the Rio de Janeiro Carnival, which takes place every year from February to March. As if his instincts as a photographer were awakened, Shinoyama flew to the other side of the world and boldly clicked the shutter, wanting to witness the world's largest festival where people lose themselves in ecstasy and meet free and open people. Like many photographers who were captivated by the turbulent New York of the 1960s, Shinoyama captured the passionate scenes of Rio, filled with an excitement that could not be experienced in Japan, in vivid color. Incidentally, these photographs taken in Rio were later reshot on a 16mm movie camera by Nobuhiko Obayashi and made into a film. A masterpiece of a young Kishin Shinoyama, full of energy and power. Art direction by Shozo Tsurumoto. (Featured in Parr&Badger Vol. III)
