"New York Correspondence (Signed)" is a photobook by Japanese photographer Ryoji Akiyama. After graduating from Waseda University's Faculty of Letters, Akiyama worked for the Associated Press and the Asahi Shimbun's photography department before becoming a freelance photographer in 1967. Since then, as a photojournalist, he has energetically covered topics such as depopulation on remote islands and famine in India. In 1974, he was selected for the "New Japanese Photography" exhibition, which was the first to introduce Japanese photographers in a major way, by John Szarkowski, the renowned director of MoMA, and Shoji Yamagishi, the famous editor-in-chief of Camera Mainichi. He also has a history of holding solo exhibitions in Houston. This book is composed of snapshots taken in New York in the late 1970s. As if following the trend from the mid-1970s onward, when artistic recognition of color photography was spreading, all illustrations are in color. A number of interesting works where a traveler's 'unique' perspective and a journalist's 'certain' perspective intersect. Comes with a commemorative signature .
