[Diverse Images Of Japan]

1930s-1960s. Collection of 84 vintage silver gelatin photographs, one signed and some annotated in Japanese in pencil verso, 25.3 x 30.7cm to 26 x 25cm. Good condition, few with minor tears to edges.

“Shinoda Mitsuhiro is one of the many now forgotten amateur photographers in Japan who contributed to local camera club exhibitions as well as occasionally submitting to international journals, including his graceful study of water reflections in the 1953 London annual Photograms of the Year. He had work in the 1948 Tokyo Camera Club ARS Photographic Annual showcasing Japan’s top photographers. Shinoda’s body of photography, mostly landscapes, ranges from soft focus work dated 1930 through to sharper, modernist landscapes of the 1940s to 1960s. With experiments in surrealist tableaux, nudes and abstraction, his work is suffused with a particular dark tonality and luminous high tones characteristic of the lush black-and-white Japanese photography of the postwar era by Mt Fuji devotee Koyo Okada (1895-1972) and poetic landscapist Hiroshi Hamaya (1915-1999). Shinoda’s body of highly accomplished image-making over a number of decades shows a long and prolific activity of a more than average amateur level that deserves to be better known.” Gael Newton, Curatorial Consultant.
