  • 'I am photographing the city of Yokosuka, but actually, I am not photographing the city of Yokosuka.'
    —Ishiuchi Miyako

    Early prints of Yokosuka Story are exceedingly rare. Yokohama Museum of Art holds an early print of this image.
     
    For her first series Yokosuka Story, Ishiuchi Miyako (b. 1947) photographed her hometown of Yokosuka (the site of the largest U.S. naval base overseas) where she had lived from the age of 6 until 19. While walking around the port city one day in 1977, Ishiuchi saw a little girl suddenly come running towards her and she took this photograph without looking through the viewfinder. The girl quickly ran past her; hence, she was able to capture only this one shot, which has since become emblematic of her debut project. ‘When looking at the girl in the picture, some people told me, “It seems just like Miyako,” even though I do not know the child,’ she remembers. ‘I am very fond of this photograph myself.’  
     
    One of Japan’s leading artists, Ishiuchi represented Japan at the 2005 Venice Biennale and is a multiple award winner, including the 4th Kimura Ihei Award (1979), Japan’s Medal with Purple Ribbon (2013) and the Hasselblad Award (2014). Her work has been exhibited internationally since 1979 and recent museum retrospectives include Ishiuchi Miyako: Postwar Shadows at the J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles (2015-16) and Ishiuchi Miyako: Grain and Image at the Yokohama Museum of Art (2017-18). Her work is held in many prominent institutions, including The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Museum of Modern Art, New York; J. Paul Getty Museum, Los Angeles; San Francisco Museum of Modern Art; and Tate Modern, London.
