At age ninety, with an active Instagram following and still making his own prints, Japanese photographer Kikuji Kawada shows little signs of slowing down.
His landmark series The Map, a seminal photo book of the 20th century published in 1965, addressed the psychology of a nation in the aftermath of war and the bombing of Hiroshima. Subsequent projects became similar surrogates for the preoccupations of the following period, from social unrest to the end of days. Presenting an expanded vision of the world in flux over the past two decades, Kawada has been utilizing color and layering offered by the digital medium with expressive force.
