图录说明
"Kikuji Kawada released this book exactly twenty years after the United States dropped an atomic bomb on Hiroshima. In between his harrowing photographs of concrete munitions bunkers, Special Forces soldier portraits, and survivors with facial scars, Kawada included semiabstract views of the decaying interior ceiling of Hiroshima’s Prefectural Industry Exhibition Hall. For Kawada and the book’s designer, Sugiura Kohei, the blooming stains on what is now known as the Hiroshima Peace Memorial linked the devastation of nuclear war to larger themes such as the evils of nationalism." (The Met, en ligne :Kikuji Kawada - Chizu (The Map) - The Metropolitan Museum of Art).
"No photobook has been more successful in combining graphic design with complex photographic narrative. [as its] various layers inside [are] peeled away like archeological strata, the whole process of viewing the book becomes one of uncovering and contemplating the ramifications of recent Japanese history ─ especially the country's tangled relationship with the United States. Kawada's photographs are a masterly amalgam of abstraction and realism, of the specific and the ineffable, woven into a tapestry that makes the act of reading them a process of re-creation in itself. In the central metaphor of the map, in the idea of the map as a series of interlocking trace marks, Kawada has conjured a brilliant simile for the photograph itself: scientific record, memory trace, cultural repository, puzzle and guide." (Parr & Badger, I, 286).
