{"product_id":"takashi-homma-tokyo","title":"Takashi Homma: Tokyo","description":"\u003cp\u003eSince the advent of photography, certain cities have become inextricably intertwined with the images taken by great photographers—Eugene Atget in turn-of-the-century Paris; Berenice Abbott in 1930s New York; Ed Ruscha in a late-sixties Los Angeles. While Daido Moriyama documented the disaffection and dissipation of postwar Tokyo, Takashi Homma deftly picks up the baton with a contemporary portrait of the modern-day metropolis that is both cinematic and complex. For over a decade, Homma has turned his lens toward Tokyo's suburban environs and urban center. His vision of Tokyo navigates a finely nuanced line between sterility and sentimentality, presenting a sleek, contemporary vision of a postmodern megalopolis populated by a new generation of video game aficionados and enervated fashionistas. While he has published extensively inside his native Japan, this is Homma's first volume published for an international audience. \u003cem\u003eTakashi Homma: Tokyo\u003c\/em\u003e compiles selections from each of the artist's six previously published titles about the city, including \u003cem\u003eTokyo Suburbia\u003c\/em\u003e, his seminal work now considered a contemporary classic.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Aperture","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42514086166662,"sku":"10594","price":250.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0585\/5399\/1302\/files\/Homma_Tokyo.jpg?v=1783713966","url":"https:\/\/store.aperture.org\/products\/takashi-homma-tokyo","provider":"Aperture","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
