Hikaru Carl Iwasaki (1924 – 15. září 2016[1]) byl americký fotograf. Jako mladistvý byl během druhé světové války do amerického internačního tábora.[2] Přispíval do časopisů Time, Life a Sports Illustrated,[3] fotografoval politiky a sportovní celebrity. Fotografoval i „obyčejné“ Američany japonského původu[4] kteří byli v průběhu války internováni v táborech.[5]
Fotografoval v táborech jako byly například Granada Relocation Center v Amache, Heart Mountain Relocation Center, Heart Mountain, Wyoming nebo Jerome Relocation Center, Denson, Arkansas. Na pořizování obrazové dokumentace ze života lidí v internačních táborech se podílela řada významných fotografů, jako například Dorothea Lange, Clem Albers, Tom Parker nebo Charles E. Mace.[6]
Život a dílo
Pracoval pro společnost War Relocation Authority, což byl orgán odpovědný za internaci a stěhování japonských Američanů během druhé světové války. Konkrétně jej najala WRA Photographic Section (WRAPS), pro kterou pořídil více než 1300 fotografií. Většina jeho tvorby z let 1943–1945 se soustředila na japonské Američany a Japonce, kteří byli umístěni v deseti stálých táborech, včetně Tule Lake, Poston, Topaz, Gila River a Minidoka.[7] Konkrétně pracoval v táborech Heart Mountain Relocation Center, Heart Mountain, Wyoming a centru Granada Relocation Center, Amache, Colorado.
Kromě všedního života v kempech zachytil také jejich zavírání a odchod posledního evakuovaného Japonce v roce 1945. Po válce se živil jako profesionální fotograf, pracoval pro magazíny Life, Sports Illustrated a Time Magazine. V roce 2012 byl posledním žijícím fotografem WRAPS.[8]
Několik stovek jeho negativů je spravováno v archivu National Archives and Records Administration, spadají do kategorie public domain a jsou k dispozici na úložišti obrázků Wikimedia Commons.
Technika
Jako většina fotožurnalistů své doby používal fotoaparát formátu 4"x5". Nejpopulárnějším typem byl Speed Graphic, který byl vybaven dálkoměrem, hledáčkem a někdy také rychlým měničem filmu.
