CAMP 1979 — Keizo Kitajima — SUPER LABO — 2015

A raw dispatch from the streets at the height of Japan’s postwar photographic avant-garde. CAMP 1979 revisits Keizo Kitajima’s year of monthly exhibitions and rapid-fire publications around Image Shop CAMP in Shinjuku. The compressed distance between shooting, darkroom work, display and print distribution gives the images their confrontational energy: street photography treated not as detached observation but as an immediate, unstable encounter with the city.
