Daido Moriyama Photo Collection (2): Hunter

1972 was a turbulent year for Daido Moriyama and a year that left a big mark on the history of photography. In March, Provoke disbanded at the same time as the publication of the summary collection "First of all, I'm sure it's the world". This book, "Hunter", was published in July. Moriyama was recommended by Takuma Nakahira to listen to Jack Kerouac's On The Road, and as a result, he decided to go to the national highway instead of staying in one place. Moriyama fell into a big slump until he published "Light and Shadow" ten years later, but among them, this book contains representative works such as the iconic "Misawa's Dog", and has been redesigned. However, by being resold repeatedly, it became a masterpiece that contributed most to the formation of the image of the photographer Daido Moriyama.

This book is the 2nd volume of "Daido Moriyama Photo Collection", a series of reviving out-of-print works with Satoru Machiguchi as the designer, new printing and clothing, and the photographer himself participating in the direction. This is the definitive edition series that recreates early masterpieces with the same image size as the first edition, reborn with triple-tone printing. The material aspect is also substantial.
