In \u003ci\u003eSumo\u003c\/i\u003e, a photographic tribute to the Japanese national sport, Gudzowaty confronts his subject with the rebellious aesthetic of \u003ci\u003eare-bure-bokeh\u003c\/i\u003e, which means \"rough, blurred, out of focus.\" This visual style developed in Japan in the 1960s as a countercurrent to the prevailing aesthetic norm of photojournalism. In this latest series, Gudzowaty photographs not only the wrestlers in the throes of combat, but also life within the training stables where these young men live, eat and sleep together. The result is an extension of Gudzowaty's previous documentary work, and a stunning black-and-white portrait of a remarkable sport within a society strongly shaped by both tradition and modernity.\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 432\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 1.6 x 9 x 7.1 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e October 10, 2023\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47349403222265,"sku":"9783775751957","price":75.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0789\/2782\/3097\/files\/aUAdrtryes9783775751957_7aefdc04-98a8-4bc9-b69a-ecde8c5fcf17.webp?v=1769779292","url":"https:\/\/bookscloud.io\/products\/tomasz-gudzowaty-sumo-paperback-1","provider":"BooksCloud Book Dropshipping","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
