Japanese Photobooks of the 1960s & 70s was selected as the winner of the Historical Book Award 2010 of Les Rencontres d’Arles: The International Photography Festival.

In April, this publication was one of four finalists for the Best Photography Book Award by the Kraszna-Krausz Foundation. Also in April, my co-author, Ryuichi Kaneko was awarded 2010 Scholastic Achievement Award from the Photographic Society of Japan for his years of work dedicated to researching Japanese photography and photobooks. These distinctions mark a broader, global awareness of Japanese photobooks and photography and the keen interest in their further study, an area to which we are committed.

We thank the juror panel for this award.
