Daido Moriyama is a master of street photography and is renowned as one of Japan's greatest-ever photographers. His work is typically a striking, gritty, and dynamic window into his daily life wandering the urban back streets of cities such as Tokyo and Osaka. However, The Photographers' Gallery in London, England, is scheduled to showcase a 'quieter' side to the iconic photographer's work.
Following Moryiama's extensive, and might I add phenomenal, retrospective at The Photographers' Gallery back in 2023, Daido Moriyama: Encounters takes a more intimate and unexpected approach to his work. Running from February 07 to April 13, this intimate selling exhibition befits the nature of the work on display, focusing on the more reflective and meditative side of Moriyama's photography and shining a light on the images often interwoven as pauses between the more noisy, dynamic and stark.
