In conjunction with LACMA's current exhibition, Fracture: Daido Moriyama, photographer Daido Moriyama, architect Kulapat Yantrasast, and Edward Robinson, LACMA associate curator of photography, discuss the gritty erotics of Japanese urban life. Providing a harsh, crude vision of city life and the chaos of everyday existence, strange worlds, and unusual characters, Moriyama’s photos express a fascination with the cultural contradictions of age-old traditions that persist within modern society, along with the effects of westernization and consumerism.
Featured image, featured in Fracture: Daido Moriyama, is "Beauty Parlor, Tokyo" (c. 1975), gelatin silver print,
7 x 10 5/8 inches, Ralph M. Parsons Fund, © Daido Moriyama.
