About

Sanrizuka 1972, published by Zen Foto Gallery in 2015, presents a compelling collection by Tenmei Kanoh that captures the 1972 Sanrizuka and Narita protests. Known for his work in commercial and glamour photography, Kanoh here reveals a different side of his artistic vision, presenting images he took over 40 years ago during a pivotal moment in Japanese history. These photographs document the anti-establishment movement of the 1970s, with Kanoh's unique perspective emphasizing themes of social disorder and youth anxiety that permeated that era.

This 144-page softcover edition measures 183 x 258 x 15 mm, combining dynamic scenes of the protests with graphic reproductions of media coverage, highlighting the energy and intensity of the time.
