The first “Japan Photographic Art Exhibition” held in 1926 with an open competition, consisted of two sections: “artistic photography” and “photographic crafts.” In Japan, amateur artistic photographers had been active since around 1900. They formed coterie groups, contributed their works to magazines, and eventually organized their group exhibitions by themselves. The pictorialism style of artistic photography, which encompassed the pigment technique, was developed throughout the generation. Photographers, however, gradually began to pursue different styles of expression and established several new styles by the 1920s. The primary reason for holding the Japan Photographic Art Exhibition was to resolve this chaotic situation in the world of artistic photography. This paper discusses not artistic photography, but rather photographic crafts, to which the historical studies of photography have rarely referred. The definition of photographic crafts updated towards the newer and social usage of photographs through the several holdings of the annual Japan Photographic Art Exhibition. The examination in this paper focuses on the photographic crafts section of the five Japan Photographic Art Exhibitions held between 1926 and 1930, aiming to clarify the process of the changes of the concept of photographic crafts and to discuss the meaning of such changes that intended to establish the connection between photography, industrial technology, and commerce.
