Description:
|
Japanese design is admired the world over, in part because it is so prominently incorporated into the ordinary, infusing scenes and objects of everyday life with a power to aesthetically please. Contemplating its subtlety and strength can be a revelation to those nurtured in Western artistic traditions, where design is often simple decoration created through symmetry and elaboration. Photographer Kenneth Straiton's collection of extraordinary images of ordinary scenes provokes this revelation, training viewers to look at design, and Japan, in a new way. The text provides succinct context for the images.
