alive (2004)
catalog for the exhibition 'alive', Albertina, 2004

Furuya rarely tackles specific themes or selects his motifs according to plan: these groups of photographs seem to punctuate the flow of images that result from the correlations of his life, images without added details, titled only with the place and time of their origin, which document his constant compulsion to secure his individual existence through the photographic record. Thus he pursues no universal concept and adheres to no specific rules or even preferences; for his life and his work with the camera are too closely integrated, and photographs, of many different kinds, become possible and important on the spur of the moment.
