Japanese Photobook Scans Rika Nishimura Rika Nishimura

As a technical achievement in scanning, the "Japanese Photobook Scans: Rika Nishimura" collection is near-perfect. As an ethical resource , it is a minefield. The preservation of fading physical media is valuable, but the subject matter prevents any mainstream endorsement. Proceed with awareness of both the historical context and the current legal/social standards. If you are looking for legal, contemporary Japanese art photography, consider the work of Rinko Kawauchi or Daido Moriyama instead. If you are specifically researching Nishimura, prepare for a difficult, morally complex search.
