Reviews
As a photographer myself I always enjoy the work of others who make images, both for their beauty and for their instructional value. This latest compilation of Michael Kenna's work is an overview of his entire career. For anyone not familiar with his work it is a great first foray into his vision, and for those who follow Kenna it is a beautifully printed and presented homage to his oeuvre. The text is informative and worth the time to read. Both Kenna and Anne Biroleau have done a fine job putting this all together.Photography is learned through being visually awakened to possibilities that can be captured by a camera, be it with film or sensor. It is only by studying the work of other photographers that an eye can be educated. Here is a wonderful and concise way to study Kenna's work. This book is perfect for those who are serious or those who who just want to revel in his vision.
