The Ginza Street

Every Building on the Ginza Street is Takashi Homma’s ninth work in his series of tributes to Ed Ruscha. Inspired by Ruscha’s 1966 photo book “Every Building on the Sunset Strip” (itself perhaps a response to the 1954 book “Ginza Haccho” with photos by Yoshikazu Suzuki), Homma photographed each building on either side of Tokyo’s Ginza Street during one night in 2019 and presents the photographs in the form of an accordion-fold photo book.
