Daidō Moriyama: A Retrospective
The Photographers’ Gallery, Ramillies St, W1
6 October 2023 – 11 February 2024
The man who took some of the most compelling images of the 20th century gets his first retrospective in the UK. And it’s long overdue. Octogenarian Japanese photographer Daidō Moriyama has probed the very essence of the medium and how an image is experienced, while blurring the boundaries between fact and fiction.
The show encompasses the vast breadth of the prolific artist’s career, from his early work for Japanese magazines and his engagement with photorealism to his more self-reflective period in the 1980s and 90s and beyond. Catch the show while you still can.
