Explores Michael Kenna’s minimalist photography and its deep connections to Asian art and philosophy. Photographer Michael Kenna, internationally renowned as one of the contemporary masters of minimalist photography, has a deep attachment to Asia. Since his first visit to Japan in 1987, he has returned time and time again to capture the continent’s landscapes, examining them with his own distinctive, recognisable eye. What’s more, these numerous trips to Asia have had a significant impact on Michael Kenna’s photography. This book provides a thematic retrospective of Michael Kenna’s work in Asia over the last 40 years.
