SELECTED WORKS

Published by Benrido, 2022
Size 20,5 x 25,5 cm
Portfolio of 6 collotypes, black and white

Shigeo Gocho (1946–1983) suffered from caries of the thoracic vertebrae as a child, which stopped him from growing and left him with a physical handicap that caused his back to bend. Gocho studied photography under Kiyoji Otsuji at Kuwasawa Design School, and after that, he continued to shoot while battling illness and published a total of three photo books during his lifetime. He died in 1983 at the age of 36. One of the main features of Gocho’s work is that there are many snapshots of children. Keeping children as its main feature, this portfolio is the first collotype work of Gocho and includes one work from “Days”, 4 works from “Self and Others”, and one work from “Childhood Time”.

Shigeo Gocho (1946-1983) a souffert d'une carie des vertèbres thoraciques dans son enfance, ce qui l'a empêché de grandir et lui a laissé un handicap physique qui lui faisait courber le dos. Gocho a étudié la photographie sous la direction de Kiyoji Otsuji à l'école de design de Kuwasawa. Par la suite, il a continué à photographier tout en luttant contre la maladie et a publié un total de trois livres de photos au cours de sa vie. Il est mort en 1983 à l'âge de 36 ans. L'une des principales caractéristiques de l'œuvre de Gocho est qu'elle comporte de nombreux clichés d'enfants. En gardant les enfants comme caractéristique principale, ce portfolio est le premier travail de collotype de Gocho et comprend une œuvre de "Days", 4 œuvres de "Self and Others", et une œuvre de "Childhood Time".
