He taught at the high school level and worked in oil painting, printmaking, and experimental film. He trained with Daido Moriyama at an independent photography workshop, the Shashin Photography Workshop Group, in 1976. Kurata won the fifth Kimura Ihei-Asahi Award in 1980 for his first book, Flash Up. For the black-and-white photographs in this book, Kurata used flash and a medium-format camera, resulting in a detailed portrait of a world of bosozoku, gangsters, right-wingers, strippers, transvestites, and so on. These are familiar themes; but in his highly polished, detailed work, Kurata has an unerring instinct for images that suggest stories. Photo Cabaret and 80's Family continued in this direction.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Seiji Kurata","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58131735314814,"sku":null,"price":196.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/files\/Photo-Cabaret-by-Seiji-Kurata7.jpg?v=1790766295","url":"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/en-us\/products\/photo-cabaret","provider":"Setanta Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
