For more than sixty years, Daido Moriyama has used his camera to interrogate and revolutionise the way we look at the world with his dense, grainy images. Even today, Moriyama's pioneering artistic spirt and visual intensity remain groundbreaking.

The exhibition traces the path of a photographer who transformed the way we see photography and questioned the very nature of photography itself.

Hear an introduction to the exhibition from Clare Grafik, who worked closely with curator Thyago Nogueira from Instituto Moreira Salles, Brasil, where the exhibition was originated.
