Daido Moriyama - Shashin yo Sayonara (森山大道 - 写真よさようなら), Shashin Hyoron-sha, 1972, Tokyo

 

Softcover with dustjacket, signed by Moriyama.

"Of my many books of photographs, Bye, Bye Photography, Dear is closest to my heart. Even now, when I flip through the pages, some thirty years after making it, the book instantly brings back vivid memories of the sixties... Could one give meaning to the meaningless act of printing a simple black and white of a frame that by accident recorded nothing? Perhaps the authority of the failed negative, with all its inherent possibility, could be restored. I imagined I could construct a book – a book of pure sensation without meaning – by shuffling into a harmonious whole a series of childish images..." (Daido Moriyama)
