The photographs in the first half of this issue of Record were shot in Gothenburg, the second-largest city in Sweden. Last year in autumn, I received an award from the Hasselblad Foundation, and the photos on these pages are some of the snapshots that I took while in Sweden for the award ceremony. Gothenburg is a harbor town located at the mouth of a river. It is a pleasant city that is characterized by a harmonic blend of past and present, and a casual scent of art and culture in the air.

I have talked about Record several times in the past, and the more issues I am publishing, the bigger the presence of this journal is becoming for myself. Day by day, it punches me in the side and urges me, “take photos and show yourself as you are now!” I just cannot put the camera down, at any time or occasion — which may sound like a matter of course for a photographer, however in my case that’s anything but an obsession. It’s all because of that dear fellow called Record that just won’t leave me alone. Wherever I go, I constantly hear him spur me on: “Look at this! Shoot that!”

Daido MORIYAMA

森山大道

Born 1938 in Osaka. After working as an assistant for photographers Takeji Iwamiya and Eikoh Hosoe, he went independent in 1964. He has been publishing his works in photography magazines among others, and received a New Artist Award from the Japan Photo Critics Association for Japan: A Photo Theater in 1967. Between 1968 and ’70 he was involved in the photo fanzine Provoke, and his style of grainy, high-contrast images that came to be referred to as “are, bure, boke” (grainy, blurry, out-of-focus) made an impact on the realm of photography. Solo shows at New York’s Metropolitan Museum of Art and the Fondation Cartier pour l'Art Contemporain in Paris solidified Moriyama’s worldwide reputation, and in 2012, he became the first Japanese to be awarded in the category of Lifetime Achievement at the 28th Annual Infinity Awards hosted by the International Center of Photography (ICP) in New York. The “William Klein + Daido Moriyama” exhibition together with William Klein at London’s Tate Modern in 2012-13 was a showdown of two immensely popular photographers that took the world by storm.
