Michael Kenna: Forms of Japan
Known for his intimate landscape photography, devoid of people but containing evidence of humanity, Kenna has become one of the world’s best-known landscape photographers. He only photographs using film, mainly medium format (120mm), preferring the square images produced, and always in black and white. His work is characterized by its quiet elegance and pristine photographic qualities.
Kenna’s exhibition at the Paul Paletti Gallery is from his third book featuring Japan, drawn from 28 years of photographing the island nation. He has published over forty photography books.
