📷📷📷 Leave it to my amazing wife, @jsybylla , to find the most extraordinary photo curation/exhibition I have experienced. In Rome at the @museomaxxi and feasting on this exhibition of two extraordinary photographers @daidomoriyamaphotography and Somei Tomatsu, curated by Hou Hanru and Elena Motisi. Moriyama and Tomatsu interact with their city, Tokyo, as they documented many aspects of life. From the exhibition: “ While sharing interests in recording ordinary scenes from the most surprising angles, they also distinguish themselves through different, somehow opposite areas of focus: Tomatsu tended to concern himself with socially and politically engaging scenes unfolding within the city from the standpoint of an activist (as in works produced in 1954-58 and in the Protest series of 1969); Moriyama enjoys merging himself in the flux of fun and enjoyment produced by the overwhelming spectacle of the consumerist society, without forgetting to reveal its "ugliness". Moriyama considers Tomatsu to be his master. It's an honour for him to exhibit alongside Tomatsu in a double monographic exhibition.” A stunning combination of silver gelatin and pigment prints, all beautifully framed. Such a treasure!! #romeitaly❤️ #romeitaly🇮🇹 #photoexhibition #maxximuseum #tokyorevisited #daidomoriyama #shomeitomatsu #shomeitomatsuphotography #digitalsilverimaging
