About Hiroh Kikai
- Hiroh Kikai (?? ??, Kikai Hiroo, born 18 March 1945) is a Japanese photographer best known within Japan for four series of monochrome photographs: scenes of buildings in and close to Tokyo, portraits of people in the Asakusa area of Tokyo, and rural and town life in India and Turkey.
- He has pursued each of these for over two decades, and each has led to one or more book-length collections. Although previously a respected name in Japanese photography, Kikai was not widely known until 2004, when the first edition of his book Persona, a collection of Asakusa portraits, won both the Domon Ken Award and Annual Award of the PSJ.
- In 2009, the ICP and Steidl copublished Asakusa Portraits for an international market.
