Osamu Kanemura
was born in Tokyo in 1964. He is often cited by Martin Parr as an one of his influences, despite one mostly working in color and the other black & white. His images of Tokyo back alleys, usually devoid of human presence, and almost exclusively in black and white are super graphic. They show a city as a place of constant chaos, confusion and living evolution. I’m sure he prints in other sizes, but he seems to favor 20” x 24” prints for shows. Which, coincidentally, is almost exactly the aspect ratio of a his favored camera, the Plaubel Makina 67.
A Tradition Upheld
Street photography has grown in the world, and is staking claim as a true art form. But mostly in the West. Eastern cultures less so. But if you consider the development of Japanese camera companies like Nikon or Canon, this almost appears backwards. It seems the interest in the technology of the medium rather than producing art is of more importance.
| Over the last ten years, Osamu Kanemura has photographed a host of urban landscapes, with a systematic emphasis on their material immediacy. | |
