Shinoyama represented Japan in the 1976 Venice Biennale with his series “Meaning of the House” (1972-1975), which reflects his interest in recording architecture around Japan. His most famous images, however, are his intimate snapshots of John Lennon and Yoko Ono, photographed in Central Park just three months prior to Lennon’s death. Initially working as a commercial photographer for Japanese advertising agency Light Publicity Company, he went freelance in 1968. He rose to prominence with his daring nude  imagery, as in his iconic series “Birth,” composed of dramatic, surrealist images that elegantly meld human bodies with the natural landscape. Approaching his surroundings with a nondiscriminating eye, Shinoyama has also photographed the transformation of his home city of Tokyo in the 21st century.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Kishin Shinoyama","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":58139228078462,"sku":null,"price":875.0,"currency_code":"GBP","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0592\/2593\/1985\/files\/A-Fine-Day-by-Kishin-Shinoyama2.heic?v=1790851884","url":"https:\/\/www.setantabooks.com\/products\/a-fine-day","provider":"Setanta Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
