Morito de Janeiro: Seiji Kumagai Photography Collection (Signed)

Morito de Janeiro is a masterpiece by Seiji Kumagai, published in 2006. It captures the frantic, explosive energy of people on beaches and at reggae festivals during Japan's record-breaking hot summer of 1994. Although conceived as an homage to Bruce Weber’s O Rio de Janeiro, it transformed into a uniquely raw portrayal of Japanese vitality. Moving from the roaring dynamism of mid-summer to the poignant stillness of autumn, the work serves as a vivid time capsule, preserving a timeless and sacred human passion. Limited to 1000 copies, saddle-stitched book, with original print. Publisher VANIKET Published 2006 Size 410x310mm
