Yoshio Tarui
Yoshio Tarui (樽井 芳雄, Tarui Yoshio; 1902–1977) was a Japanese photographer.
In 1937, he co-founded the Avant-Garde Image Group with Yoshifumi Hattori, Gingo Hanawa, Kōrō Honjō, and Terushichi Hirai, a circle dedicated to experimental photographic expression.[1][2] The Osaka section of the 2022 Tokyo Photographic Art Museum exhibition Avant-Garde Rising: The Photographic Vanguard in Modern Japan later discussed this Kansai milieu and included Tarui among its artists.[3]
