About “Harmonie”
Japan strikes many people as mysterious, and this volume takes that enchantment as its starting point. Photographs by Klaus G. Förg show the country in vivid colors and capture its moods.
Added to these are sayings that Gaku Ishii has gathered from Japanese poetry. The combination of image and word creates a mix that leaves room for calm and invites slow reading.
As you turn the pages slowly, you find again and again a moment to pause between image and word. The title “Harmonie” stands for what pictures and texts seek together: a state in which the outer and the inner world come into alignment.
Who is “Harmonie” for?
The volume is written for readers who enjoy photo books and Japan-themed works and like to read short texts in between. Anyone interested in sayings from other cultures will find an easy way into an unfamiliar world of thought here.
When is “Harmonie” the best read?
The volume suits a quiet evening when you want to take time deliberately for pictures and words. It is also a fitting companion for a trip to Japan, or for an afternoon with a cup of tea.
