PARIS — Craving fresh perspective on your life’s work is understandable after photographing the same area of a city for nearly half a century.
Having wandered the buzzing Tokyo district of Shinjuku for more than 40 years capturing urban scenes in his signature off-kilter, grainy black-and-white images, the Japanese street photographer Daido Moriyama, 77, said he needed to “reset.”
In “Daido Tokyo,” at the Fondation Cartier in Paris until June 5, the artist brings his vision into clear focus and full color for a different look at the streets he has roamed and documented.
