A Rare Glimpse at Kozo Miyoshi’s Captivating World
Photographer Kozo Miyoshi, known for his quiet, reverent inquiry into the world over a career spanning more than fifty years, is presenting his first solo exhibition in more than a decade. Miyoshi’s work is characterized by its subtle rendering of light, shadow and stillness, capturing landscape and people with a sense of purity and openness.
The show features prints selected from his new photobook, A Long Interview with Kozo Miyoshi. It’s a rare chance to see works printed by the artist’s own hand using ultra-large analog negatives, which achieve a stunning level of detail that can’t compare with digital screen viewing. “Knowing that such overwhelmingly beautiful landscapes are scattered across the world gave me both comfort and a quiet sense of loneliness,” says Yusuke Nagai, founder of Vacant/Centre.
