Hunter of Light 1965-2003 (2003)
Hunter of Light: 1965–2003 is a comprehensive 320-page retrospective published in 2003 for an exhibition at the Shimane Art Museum. Featuring over 400 photographs, including rare early works, this bilingual (Japanese/English) volume traces Moriyama’s iconic, raw, grainy aesthetic and his unflinching exploration of urban life. Photographer andMoriyama’s understudy, Eikoh Hosoe's essays contextualize his provocative vision, and an illustrated bibliography further enriches the collection. The book underscores Moriyama’s legacy as a pioneer of postwar Japanese photography, blending documentary and fine art into a singular, transformative oeuvre.
