Descriptions MODORU OKINAWA by KEIZO KITAJIMA Free Ebook
"Sex, drugs and Okinawa. Capturing hedonism on the Japanese island during the hangover of the Vietnam and Korean wars", Dazed & Confused.
Keizo Kitajima visited Koza city in Okinawa, Japan, regularly during the years of the post Vietnam War in the late 70's.
The city was the epicenter of a celebrative rush that lasts for a few years. It experienced a momentary raucous spell where Japanese culture collides and becomes intimate with African-American trends and culture. Ultimately it became a successful, popular shock wave which died off with the advent of the 1980s.
Keizo Kitajima executed a vital work, a crucial and important piece of documentary photography. During those years Keizo realizes that the photographic exploration of reality is everything but small talk or commentary: it is an observation detached from any sentimentalism, a way to go further than what meets the eye and to document what is beyond the simple appearance.
This is Modoru Okinawa by Keizo Kitajima. Texts by Christian Caujolle.
