Life and career

edit

Born—as Kazumasa Suda (須田 一政 Suda Kazumasa[2][3])—in Kanda, Tokyo on 24 April 1940, Suda dropped out of Toyo University in 1961 and entered Tokyo College of Photography, from which he graduated in 1962.[4]

From 1967 to 1971, Suda worked as the cameraman of the theatrical group Tenjō Sajiki, under Shūji Terayama. He worked as a freelance photographer from 1971.[4] His first photobook, Fūshi kaden, was named after a treatise by Zeami Motokiyo; it won a Photographic Society of Japan newcomer's award in 1976. His fourth, Ningen no kioku, won the Domon Ken Award in 2014.[1]

Suda was a professor at Osaka University of Arts.

He died at the age of 78 on 7 March 2019.[2][3]
