"“In Color In Japan: Selected and New Works” showcases the world through Shin Noguchi’s eyes, where the camera becomes an extension of the self, blending vision and reality into a singular expression of the moment. This revised edition invites you to engage with the world in its full spectrum, experiencing the unfiltered beauty of life and its myriad hues. 
Through a blend of single and multiple viewpoints, Noguchi crafts images that are both a reflection of reality and a window into the soul of a nation.

Like many other Japanese photographers, Noguchi likes to work in an essay format, sometimes planned, at other times as a post-hoc thematic exploration. In keeping with his artistic vision, Shin Noguchi chooses to shoot with films.
Shin’s use of film and his preference for a manual camera underscore a deliberate approach to photography, where each shot is a culmination of anticipation, intuition, and a profound connection with his subject. His dedication to capturing the genuine essence of life through color film emerges from a desire to document the world as it is.

“In Color In Japan: Selected and New Works” transcends the boundaries of traditional street photography, offering a cultural exploration that reveals the complexity and diversity of Japanese society." - Publisher's statement
