Hiroshi Sugimoto: Stop Time

A complete overview of the practice of Hiroshi Sugimoto, considered by many to be one of the most authoritative figures of international contemporary photography. This volume traces the artist’s entire career and masterpieces that have marked his research: from dioramas in natural history museums to seascapes and famous theaters photographed with long exposure times. An entire section is also dedicated to architecture, featuring some recent “no-focus” photographs related to the most important cultural buildings in the world, such as MoMA in New York and the Serpentine Gallery in London. The volume also includes some pictures from the series Lightning Fields. A special section is devoted to the Sugimoto monographs published from 1977 to the recent ones, Dioramas and On The Beach, printed in 2014.
