After working as a portrait photographer in Tokyo from 1931 to 1933, Shibuya opened his own commercial photo studio in 1934. He also taught and lectured at various photo clubs, and his photographs was widely published in photography magazines. 📷 The 1930s saw a significant increase in the number of camera clubs and photography magazines in Japan. They promoted avant-garde artistic movements from Europe, particularly principles advanced by the Bauhaus, such as attention to form and shadow and the creation of formal compositions from everyday objects and materials. In 1936 Shibuya won first prize in the Asahi Advertising Contest for his photographic storyboard for an advertisement for Crème de lait, a women’s hand cream. He exhibited widely throughout the 1940s, and in 1952 formed the Japan Commercial Photographers Association. The prints above were originally part of a hand-printed studio portfolio assembled and bound by Shibuya to showcase his advertising work. 📷 Untitled (Advertisement for Laito Cream) 1936 👘 Untitled (Advertisement for Laito Cream) 1936 ☕ Untitled (Cigarettes, camera & coffee) 1936 👝 Untitled (Advertising photograph, two women on street) 1936 🌹 Untitled (Advertising photograph, mannequin hand & flower) 1936」8月30日 2時45分
