Rare Photo Book by Ken Domon.All photos are shown in B&W
Ken Domon (Domon Ken, 1909-1990) is one of the most renowned Japanese photographers of the twentieth century.He is most celebrated as a photojournalist, though he may have been most prolific as a photographer of Buddhist temples and statuary. Year 1909 (MCMIX) was a common year starting on Friday (link will display full calendar) of the Gregorian calendar (or a common year starting on Thursday of the 13-day-slower Julian calendar). ... Year 1990 (MCMXC) was a common year starting on Monday (link displays the 1990 Gregorian calendar). ... A photographer at the Calgary Folk Music Festival Paparazzi at the Tribeca Film Festival A photographer is a person who takes a photograph using a camera. ...
Domon was born in Sakata, Yamagata Prefecture, and quickly moved from painting to portrait photography. In 1935 he joined Nippon Kōbō to work on its magazine Nippon. Four years later he moved to Kokusai Bunka Shinkōkai, a national propaganda organization; like Ihei Kimura and many other notable Japanese photographers, he helped the war effort. Yamagata Prefecture (Yamagata-ken) is located in the Tohoku region on Honshu island, Japan. ... Ihei Kimura ( Kimura Ihei) is one of the most celebrated Japanese photographers of the twentieth century, particularly known for his portrayal of Tokyo and Akita. ...
With the end of the war, Domon became independent and documented the aftermath of the war. He was a prolific contributor to photographic magazines, revived or started afresh through the early 1950s. With Kimura, Hiroshi Hamaya and others, he rejected posed and other artful photographs; in his polemics in the photographic magazines, Domon was the most forceful exponent of this view.
Among Domon's most powerful images are those taken in the first decade or so after the war, particularly those of the survivors of the atomic bombing of Hiroshima, the life and particularly the children in a poor coal-mining community in Chikuho, Kyushu), and the improvised play of children in Kōtō, Tokyo. This article does not cite any references or sources.
From 1960, Domon underwent a series of strokes, which eventually prevented him from holding a camera and confined him to a wheelchair. This did not deter him from photography, and he traveled energetically around Japan, documenting its Buddhist temples in what would become an imposing series of luxuriously produced books.
In 1981 Mainichi Newspapers established the annual Domon Ken Award in celebration of the 110th birthday of the Mainichi Shimbun. Headquarters in Tokyo Osaka Office Newsagents shop in Higashi-osaka Printing plant in Settsu The Mainichi Shimbun , lit. ...
