The November 2018 Square Print Sale, presented by Magnum Photos and Aperture, brings together over 100 images to explore perspectives on transition and transformation in photography. Here: Crossing in the Ginza district. Tokyo, Japan, 1996, by Harry Gruyaer. “Since my first trip to Tokyo in 1996, Japan has fascinated me. You have an incredible sense of security: school children take the metro by themselves, you feel you could leave your camera in a phone booth and still find it there if you came back a few days later. There is also such a sense of discipline, like at this crossing where everybody waits patiently for the lights to change. Something else about Japan: nobody looks at you. It’s paradise for a photographer, but after a while you wonder if you still exist”. (Photo by Harry Gruyaert/Magnum Photos)
