Many of us are familiar with the city scape and beauty of Japan, brave towering buildings reaching for the sky, temples with their simple aesthetic to bring people to peaceful thoughts, and the streets filled with neon lights to attract the wandering eye. However, few of us know the Japan that isn't meant to be seen -- the underground constructions that are made to keep Japan running, without trying to appeal to any aesthetic, just simple function. But to be sure, there are amazing sights to be seen underneath the concrete, and photographer Hideaki Uchiyama brings them to us, his camera giving us sights unseen and giving the dark corners special intriguing beauty. From corridors of pipes amid lights, to old tunnels used for movement of troops during the war, ventilation shafts, subway lines both forgotten and those under construction, man-sized icicles in a huge refrigerator... all powerful images from below the ground that the general public will never see. It's hard to imagine that these are not sets from some cyberpunk sci-fi movie but real constructions with a practical purpose. This is an incredible photobook with large pages, something to stir the imaginations of anyone who picks up this 160 page full color hardcover coffee table book. For photography fans and for anyone who has ever held a curiosity of Japan. An index in the back has explanations in Japanese where the photos are taken from which are just as amazing as the photos themselves. 13" x 10".   Buy 4 or more photobooks and get 15% off!
