Daido Silk presents 45 of Daido Moriyama’s best and most important photographs from his long career, in exceptional quality. Produced with great care and attention, each page has been silk-screen printed and presents unprecedented visual depth and gradation. The photographs have been selected from Moriyama’s most representative series of the last 50 years (including more recent works such as “View from the Laboratory”) and arranged in chronological order.

Daido Silk includes an afterword by Daido Moriyama (translated into Japanese and English). Limited to 500 copies (each book is numbered).

“I vividly remember the scene at my exhibition venue in Roppongi, where the life-size motorcycle images I’d covered the walls with were freshly silk-screened, filling the place with the smell of wet ink. All this happened at a time when I had put aside conventional photo printing and channeled all my enthusiasm into screen printing. The pleasure I derived from rubbing the ink over the delicate masses of stretched silk was unparalleled, and so I continued to print my favorite images until I ran out of steam.” – excerpt from Daido Moriyama’s afterword
