Akio Nagasawa Gallery Ginza is pleased to present a solo exhibition by Daido Moriyama, ANOTHER COUNTRY IN NEW YORK.

The exhibition title, ANOTHER COUNTRY IN NEW YORK, derives from Moriyama’s self-published photobook of the same name, produced in 1974 as part of the Daido Moriyama Printing Show.

The Printing Show was an extremely experimental project for its time. During the event, photographic prints taken by Moriyama during his stay in New York in 1971 were copied, bound on site, and offered for immediate sale—an approach that resembles what we would now call a “zine.” The resulting publication, ANOTHER COUNTRY IN NEW YORK, later became known as a “legendary copy book” and remains a unique work in the history of photobooks.

In 2013, Akio Nagasawa Publishing released a reprint edition of the photobook. In 2025, the spirit of the original Printing Show was further developed through a participatory workshop held at a gallery in New York, where visitors copied prints and bound them on site to create their own photobooks.

This exhibition presents original prints from the ANOTHER COUNTRY IN NEW YORK series.

On the occasion of the exhibition, Akio Nagasawa Publishing will also offer a new edition of ANOTHER COUNTRY IN NEW YORK. This updated version includes numerous contact sheets that were not included in the original publication.

Through both the exhibition and the photobook, visitors are invited to experience Moriyama’s powerful vision of New York in 1971.
