Osaka-based photographer Jun Abe presents a rare collection of color photographs. Spanning nearly one hundred pages, Abe showcases the originality and diversity of his street photography, capturing everything from humorous and surreal scenes within Japan’s urban landscape to compositions hinting at larger narratives, connecting seemingly unrelated elements, and creating visual poetry. Every now and then, there is strangely mesmerizing direct eye contact with his subjects, as if Abe is connecting with another world.

“The old negatives had deteriorated, their colors no longer what they originally were. Glancing at my bookshelf, I saw [Gilles Deleuze and Félix Guattari’s] ‘Kafka: Towards a Minor Literature,’ and decided to name the book ‘Minor Color.’”
― Jun Abe
