Landscape
This collection includes six collotype prints from Toshio Shibata's "Landscape" series. Made in 1989 and 1990, the six images focus on concrete walls and structures erected in the mountains of the Japanese prefectures of Niigata, Fukushima, Miyazaki, and Tochigi. Although beautiful in their own right, these undeniably artificial structures, with their complex and precise geometic shapes, seem out of place in the surrounding natural landscape. In Shibata's photographs, this apparent incongruity is resolved into visually harmonious compositions.
Collotype is one of the oldest photographic printing technique and involves oil-based pigment inks. The process is revered for its excellent reproduction of colors and gradations, the smoothness and depth of its texture and its strong durability. Founded in Kyoto in 1905, Benrido Atelier is one of the most experienced collotype printing studios in the world.
