Shomei Tomatsu - 11:02 Nagasaki - 東松照明写真集 <11時02分> Nagasaki, Shashin Dojinsha, 1966, Tokyo

 

Hardcover with publisher's clear acetate jacket in slipcase.

Tomatsu had originally intended for 11:02 Nagasaki to be the first in a series of three separate books, the others being ‘Osorezan: Countryside Politicians’, ‘Homes’, and ‘Asphalt and Occupation’. However, sales of 11:02 Nagasaki were poor and the publisher Shashin Dojinsha collapsed soon after its publication. Tomatsu subsequently formed his own publishing company called Shaken, and in 1967 he published Nihon which included photographs from these unpublished series. In 1968 he took the remaining unsold copies of 11:02 Nagasaki, changed the copyright page and placed a sticker bearing the new publisher’s name on the spine. (Oliver Wood)

11:02 Nagasaki is, together with Hiroshima-Nagasaki Document 1961, Ken Domon’s Hiroshima (1958), and Kikuji Kawada’s Chizu [The Map] (1965), one of the ‘most significant memorials to the defining event in twentieth-century Japanese history. They also illustrate a clear progression towards truly world class Japanese photographic expression’ (Badger)
