Full Description
Toshio Shibata's large-format contemporary landscapes are
distinguished by their haunting beauty, graceful composition,
and meticulous detail. Using long exposures, and eliminating
any references to people, horizons, or identifying geographic
reference points, Shibata captures structures such as dams,
bridges, reservoirs, and roads as they interact with their natural
settings—mountainsides, rivers, forests, and fields. The results
are highlighted by painterly composition; filled with patterns,
lines, and fluid action; and unmistakably Japanese in their
aesthetic.
Curated and with commentary by Phillip Prodger, one of the
most erudite and critical voices in contemporary photography,
this book will appeal both to fans of Toshio Shibata's work
as well as an audience that has yet to discover his remarkable
oeuvre.
