Seen: ドヤ街 Doyagai ー Day labouring districts of Japan
Who: Seung-Woo Yang, Shoko Hashimoto, Haruto Hoshi, Issei Suda and Seiryu Inoue
Where: Zen Foto Gallery, Roppongi
When: July 22 - August 17 / September 15 - October 7, 2017
Doyagai are parts of Japanese cities where day laborers congregate- this exhibition collects work from five photographers who have frequented these areas- places where cameras aren’t welcome- since the 1950s. It’s a fantastic collection of what can be considered classic street photography. The curator of the show, Mark Pearson, notes that“The doyagai are special places. They reflect our essential selves, our origins. Stripped of masks. Stripped of possessions. Stripped of money. Stripped of power.”
The only doyagai that I am somewhat familiar with is the edges of Sanya (namely Minami-Senju) in Tokyo- with the encroachment of new housing towers and strip malls which come along with new urban planning nearby, and the transformation of flop-houses into AirBnB spots, in 2017 I wonder if they’re also under threat of becoming stripped of identity, as well.
This remarkable exhibition closes on Aug. 17, but will return to the gallery for a second showing from Sept. 15 to Oct. 7th. Highly recommended.

Left: June 18th Issue of Asahi Graph Magazine. “Nobuyoshi Araki shoots Araki-cho”. 1999
Right: Araki-cho, Tokyo. August 2, 2017
Araki-cho is a gem tucked away in Shinjuku-ku- it’s a quiet district of winding paths and stone staircases. While it once was one of Tokyo’s major geisha districts, local entertainment now takes place in any of the 300+ tiny dining and drinking establishments that line its streets. Asahi Graph magazine commissioned Nobuyoshi Araki to photograph this aptly named part of town for their June, 1999 issue.

Ebisu
Leica M3 DS with 50mm f2 rigid Summicron and VC Meter II.
This is an exceptionally rare M3- from an early batch and what’s more, the engraving on the back shows it was a rental/loaner body from Leica’s factory back in the day.
