Plastic Love by Daido Moriyama, published in Tokyo in 2020 by Akio Nagasawa Publishing as a numbered limited edition of 350 copies. This is copy no. 28. With art and editorial direction by Akio Nagasawa and printed in Japan, the publication was produced in close collaboration with Moriyama and carries the copyright of the Daido Moriyama Photo Foundation and Akio Nagasawa Publishing.

Born in 1938, Moriyama emerged as one of the defining figures of Japanese photography in the late 1960s, becoming closely associated with the radical photographic language surrounding the magazine Provoke. His grainy, blurred, high-contrast and deliberately unstable images—often described through the Japanese term are-bure-boke—rejected conventional photographic clarity and helped redefine the visual vocabulary of postwar Japanese photography.

Throughout a career spanning more than six decades, Moriyama has remained one of the most prolific and influential photobook makers in Japan. His practice has consistently treated the photobook not simply as a container for photographs, but as an autonomous form through which sequencing, reproduction, scale, texture, and fragmentation become part of the work itself.

Akio Nagasawa's Ginza gallery and publishing imprint has become one of Moriyama's closest publishing partners, producing a continuing series of tightly edited, limited-run publications in direct collaboration with the artist. These small editions occupy an important position within Moriyama's extensive bibliography, often distinguished by their restricted production and close relationship between artist, publisher, and collector.

A signed and individually numbered example from the 2020 edition, Plastic Love belongs to the continuing body of limited photobook editions through which Moriyama and Nagasawa have extended the artist's photographic practice into the contemporary Japanese publishing landscape.
