Remarques & avis / Review — An outstanding issue of the monthly deluxe version of the magazine Taiyo, that celebrates the first anniversary of the magazine. It entails several memorable photo-sections: Nobuyoshi ARAKI's first published work and a monochrome gem of photo-reportage, portrait & street photography, Sacchin, and the winner of the First Taiyo Award (and thanks to the inimitable 1960s paper & printing, of a much better rendering than in the 1994 version); a superb series of color fashion photos by Shunji OKURA, where traditional objects & shapes face modern dresses designed and dyed after them; the dyeing process is then presented in a fine monochrome photo-documentary by Kiyoshi SONOBE; and the introductory section is the occasion of a beautifully sequenced panorama of space & emptiness fear aesthetics. Note that the general page layout & letterprint in the very first years of Taiyo is also a work of art in itself. An exceptional issue.
Un numéro remarquable de la version mensuelle de luxe de la revue Taiyo, qui commémore le premier anniversaire du magazine. Il comprend plusieurs sections-photo mémorables : le premier travail publié d'ARAKI Nobuyoshi, Sacchin, un joyau de photo-reportage, portrait et photo de rue, et vainqueur du premier Prix Taiyo (et, grâce au papier & impression inimitables des années 1960, d'un rendu bien supérieur à la version de 1994) ; une superbe série de photos de mode en couleur par OKURA Shunji, où des objets et formes traditionnels font face aux robes qui furent crées et teintes en s'inspirant de ces derniers ; le procédé de teinture utilisé est ensuite présenté dans un beau documentaire monochrome par SONOBE Kiyoshi ; et la section introductive est l'occasion d'une panorama, excellemment séquencé, d'une esthétique de la peur de l'espace et du vide. Notez que la maquette générale & typo de page des toutes premières années du Taiyo est également une œuvre d'art en soi. Un numéro exceptionnel.
