Stunning。

Kavie

Fukase的失落与悲伤需要一种充满张力的表现形式,而在常年对着乌鸦的摄像头下,Fukase找到了他的方式,他也成为了它们中的一员。

Ясен В。

The images in Fukase's book carry what any good photograph does - the smell and feel of what is captured on camera。 Steeping in atmosphere, these grainy images throw you at the deep end。 The images in Fukase's book carry what any good photograph does - the smell and feel of what is captured on camera。 Steeping in atmosphere, these grainy images throw you at the deep end。 。。。more

Doing anything during pandemic。 So hilarious

I heard about this book after listening to The Ravenmaster, which discusses the ravens residing at the tower of London。 The author mentions that his favorite book depicting photos of ravens is Fukase's Ravens。 This was great and is something that I typically don't pick up。 It may have me checking out more books on photography。 I heard about this book after listening to The Ravenmaster, which discusses the ravens residing at the tower of London。 The author mentions that his favorite book depicting photos of ravens is Fukase's Ravens。 This was great and is something that I typically don't pick up。 It may have me checking out more books on photography。 。。。more

Capolavoro di bianco e nero "espressionista": un'anima tormentata che si rispecchia nel nero dei volatili, diventando esso stesso corvo che guarda i corvi。 Un libro dalla cui profonda cupezza è impossibile non essere coinvolti。 Capolavoro di bianco e nero "espressionista": un'anima tormentata che si rispecchia nel nero dei volatili, diventando esso stesso corvo che guarda i corvi。 Un libro dalla cui profonda cupezza è impossibile non essere coinvolti。 。。。more

harrowing!

Staring at animals is a sad act。 Whenever I see an old man going back and forth in a park or sitting on a bench watching stray dogs, the fear that I might some day end up that way comes floating to mind。 。 。 Solitude is a form of illness。 Ravens: Afterword by Akira Hasegawa I visited Tokyo, Japan in 1992 and lived there during the summer。 I had a wonderful time, and I didn't feel particularly "culture shocked" or lonely。 I have to admit, however, that I really enjoyed and even took refuge in rave Staring at animals is a sad act。 Whenever I see an old man going back and forth in a park or sitting on a bench watching stray dogs, the fear that I might some day end up that way comes floating to mind。 。 。 Solitude is a form of illness。 Ravens: Afterword by Akira Hasegawa I visited Tokyo, Japan in 1992 and lived there during the summer。 I had a wonderful time, and I didn't feel particularly "culture shocked" or lonely。 I have to admit, however, that I really enjoyed and even took refuge in raven watching while I was there。 These large and gnarly-beaked birds would sit high in trees, and it seemed to me that they were as interested in watching the urban world below them as I was in watching them。I didn't have a camera with me that trip and wish I had。 If I had, I would have taken scores of pictures of them。 I even looked for a Tokugawa block print of ravens as a souvenir to remind me of my solitary time I spent living in a city where I neither spoke nor read the language。 I never found the right image。 The Solitude of Ravens (1991) by Japanese photographer Masahisa Fukase is a collection of photos taken mostly in Hokkaido where he retreated after his divorce from Yohko。 All of the photos are in black and white, and they create an expressionistic landscape of Japan in the late 1970's as seen by a very lonely man。 Many of the pictures are of ravens that were taken as the sun was setting or had set that reflected Fukase's dark moods。 This moodiness is apparent in the portfolio's non-corvus photos as well。 They're not the pictures that I might had taken during my summer in the Land of the Rising Sun, but they're very moving。 I understand them。 I also learned a lot about black and white film photography by looking at this collection The short essays by David Travis and Akira Hasegawa that are included in the portfolio are revealing and worth reading。 The proper collective noun for ravens is an unkindness, but Fukase aptly named his volume The Solitude of Ravens; you can almost hear Lennon and McCartney's Eleanor Rigby as you peruse these photographs。 Those interest in the emotive power of photography will enjoy this collection。 。。。more

Perfect for this time of year (Fall)。 I love the mood of this book—some of the photos seem discordant in the collection, but overall masterfully done。 Lots to learn about b&w photography and shooting in low-light situations。

Jeff Jackson

One of the most desolate books I've come across。 If you stare long enough at these shadowy images - of birds, birds, birds, smokestacks, vagrants, industrial skyscapes, fetid beaches, massage workers - they'll settle into your bones like a damp chill。 Highly recommended。 One of the most desolate books I've come across。 If you stare long enough at these shadowy images - of birds, birds, birds, smokestacks, vagrants, industrial skyscapes, fetid beaches, massage workers - they'll settle into your bones like a damp chill。 Highly recommended。 。。。more

This is one of the best books of photographs ever, really in my top five。 I have the Hysteric Glamour reprint, and the reproduction quality is superlative。

I need to find this book again - a friend of mine owned it years ago and it's considered one of the best photo books of the 20th century。 The photographer photographed ravens following the painful break-up of his relationship, and the photos are beautiful and mournful。 Unforgettable!

i'm no critic as my knowledge of photography is limited, but this was a stark and haunting collection by fukase。 i like anything that invokes solitude whether peaceful or eerie。 also, some of the pics reminded me of the movie- the birds。 i'm no critic as my knowledge of photography is limited, but this was a stark and haunting collection by fukase。 i like anything that invokes solitude whether peaceful or eerie。 also, some of the pics reminded me of the movie- the birds。 。。。more

I was lucky enough to borrow a beat up copy of this out of print book through interlibrary loan。 The photos are haunting。 Many images are slightly blurred, expressionistic, and dark。 The essays are both terrible, but mercifully short。 A wonder this book hasn't been reprinted - it's stunning, beautifully sad work。 I was lucky enough to borrow a beat up copy of this out of print book through interlibrary loan。 The photos are haunting。 Many images are slightly blurred, expressionistic, and dark。 The essays are both terrible, but mercifully short。 A wonder this book hasn't been reprinted - it's stunning, beautifully sad work。 。。。more
