Scheduled to be released in Spring 2021 "The past is always new, the future is always nostalgic - Photographer Daido Moriyama"
Daido Moriyama, known as the king of snapshots, has garnered tremendous support from young creators both in Japan and abroad. In addition to actively photographing the top stars of the times, such as Masaki Suda, Hikaru Utada, Takuya Kimura, and ONE OK ROCK, he has won the Hasselblad Prize, known as the Nobel Prize of photography, and is at the top of the photography world both in name and reality. However, despite his kaleidoscopic public image, only a few have ever had a chance to experience the true nature of his genius. Introspection and shame. Silence and enthusiasm. Melancholy and intelligence. His life, like his photographs, has captivated fans as an unsolvable mystery.

Who exactly is Daido Moriyama?
This work boldly captures the photographer's fresh gestures as they become one with the camera, revealing a true face that no one has ever seen before. The audience has no choice but to surrender to the series of miraculous shots and magical sequences. An unprecedented documentary that approaches the biggest mystery in the history of photography has finally been released.

Goods commemorating the release of photographer Daido Moriyama's documentary ``The past is always new, the future is always nostalgic: Photographer Daido Moriyama'' in spring 2021. A photo of your own shadow reflected on a straight road is printed.

■Daido Moriyama
Born in Osaka in 1938. After working as an assistant to photographer Takeji Iwamiya and Hideko Hosoe, he became independent in 1964. He continued to publish his works in photo magazines and other publications, and in 1967 won the Japan Photo Critics Association Newcomer's Award at the ``Nippon Theater''. From 1968 to 1970, he participated in the photo fanzine ``Provoke,'' and his high-contrast, coarse-grained style was described as ``are-ble-boke'' and shocked the photography world.
He has been highly acclaimed worldwide, having held solo exhibitions at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and Fondation Cartier Contemporary Art in Paris. First award. In 2012, the two-person exhibition ``William Klein + Daido Moriyama'' with William Klein was held at Tate Modern in London, and the collaboration between the two took the world by storm. In 2016, he held his second solo exhibition "DAIDO TOKYO" at Fondation Cartier Contemporary Art in Paris. In 2018, he was awarded the Order of Arts and Letters ``Chevalier'' by the French government. Winner of the 2019 Hasselblad Foundation International Photography Award.
