Ryuji Miyamoto was born in Tokyo in 1947. After graduating from the Graphic Design Department of Tama Art University, he worked as an editor for the magazine Toshi Jutaku (Urban Residence) until 1975, and first came to be known to the public in 1986 for his photographs of demolished buildings entitled the “Architectural Apocalypse” series.
Miyamoto entered the inner depths of contemporary urban space and portrayed its fascinating chaos through photographs of demolition sites of movie theaters, department stores and prisons in Tokyo, Berlin and Brussels. This photographic manifesto was published in 1988.
