Hardcover. The disorienting culture of modern Tokyo, captured in Andreas R. Kremer's sensual colour photography. On his trips to Tokyo, the huge social contrasts were a particular challenge for the photographer Andreas R. Kremer. His visual vocabulary sensitively expresses both amazement and respect for the foreign culture. The tension between intimacy and public display, control and excess, individual and mass guide his eye. Kremer presents a world of pictures - lively, surprising, and sensual - with intuitive trust in the unexpected. With his multilayered dramaturgy, the book becomes an impressive commitment to openness to the other. Tension portrays the dizzying coexistence of subculture (pachinko parlours, cosplayers), traditional culture (shrines, temples, traditional dress) and mass culture (bars, advertisements, nightlife) that makes up urban Tokyo. 130 colour photographs In dazzling images, photographer Andreas R. Kremer pays homage to the diversity of Japanese culture between intimacy and public display, control and excess, individualism and conformity.
