A photo collection by Ishiuchi Miyako, a female photographer who Japan is proud of around the world, "Riding the Winds of Joshu 1976/2008 (Signed)". Following in the footsteps of artists who led the postwar Japanese photography world, such as Tomatsu Shomei and Moriyama Daido, her early trilogy "Yokosuka Story", "Apartment" and "The City of Nights" are known as masterpieces that have made their mark in the history of Japanese photography. Since the 1990s, she has also been actively working on creating close-ups of the "body" that imprints "time" and "memory", and her famous works include "1, 9, 4, 7", "Hiromi 1955", "1906 to the Skin" and "Scars". This book is a catalog published for an exhibition held at the Okawa Museum of Art in Kiryu City, Gunma Prefecture in 2009. Before moving to Yokosuka at the age of 6, Ishiuchi was born and raised in her hometown of Joshu. In fact, Ishiuchi quietly released works depicting Joshu twice a year around the time of the release of her early trilogy. When I was just starting out as a photographer, I didn't have a clear idea of what I should photograph, so I just went for it, somehow, and captured the lonely and fleeting scenery of Kiryu, where I spent my childhood. This book contains 30 images, including "One day." Signed by the photographer .
