Tokyo Olympia is a continuation and reinterpretation of Takashi Homma's seminal book Tokyo Suburbia. Over six years Homma photographed the ever-changing Tokyo landscape and the unchanging Tokyo cityscape in preparation for the Tokyo 2020 Olympics. The book features images that capture the sheer scale of the megalopolis of Tokyo. One of the sites is the old National Stadium showing it's transformation to the new National Stadium or the Tsukiji Market just before the relocation to Toyosu Market, the ever-changing buildings and vast vacant lots of Tokyo Bayside.

Takashi Homma is one of the most internationally recognised Japanese photographers active at the front lines of contemporary photography today. Homma’s photography, possessing a uniquely cool gaze that rejects any sentimentality and portrays its subject with a characteristic sense of distance and cool tonality, has received acclaim not only in the world of photography but also contemporary art.
