Shomei TomatsuOkinawa

Photographs: Shomei Tomatsu

Text: Shomei Tomatsu

Publisher: Shaken

Year: 1969

Sold

Tomatsu's most political book, with the famous, searing image of a missile launching sandwiched between graphic slogans demanding the end to American occupation of the island. Like most of Tomatsu's books, Okinawa is difficult to categorize. It borrows stylistically from the Provoke school while never losing its focus as a social documentary, yet it would be overly simplistic to lump it in with other Japanese protest books, even those about Okinawa.

Softcover, 210 x 260 mm. Black & white photographs. Text in japanese. Gravure printing. First edition, 1969. Included in Auer Collection, p.503. In a great condition, small visible wear on back cover.
