Minayoshi Takada (高田 皆義, Takada Minayoshi; 1899–1982) was a Japanese photographer from Nagoya. He was a driver of modernist and constructivist photography in Japan.[1]

After World War II, he co-founded the postwar avant-garde photography collective VIVI (VIVI-sha) in Nagoya in 1947 with the photographer-poet Kansuke Yamamoto and others.[2] Takada also published the group's bulletin CARNET DE VIVI (no. 1, June 1948).[3]
