As one of the best-known commercial photographers in Japan, who also gained notoriety for a series of shocking photographs of writer Yukio Mishima, Kishin Shinoyama masterful creates cinematic-like sequences from the mundane and ordinary. Composed from numerous double page full-bleeds in rich saturated colors, Shinoyama's A Fine Day / Hareta Hi presents a rich visual experience that encapsulates both the intensities and subtleties of contemporary Japanese culture. Covering a broad range of subjects, from arresting landscapes to theatrical portraits of politicians, Shinoyama astutely combines the journalistic and the personal into a unique and highly subjective vision of postwar Japan. A scarce book and almost certainly one of Shinoyama's best.
