Decades' worth of images have been distilled down to 568 pages of
photographs in this ultimate retrospective collection of Nobuyoshi
Araki's work, selected by the artist himself. First published as a
limited edition and now available as a standard TASCHEN edition,
the curation delves deep into Araki's best-known imagery: Tokyo
street scenes; faces and foods; colorful, sensual flowers; female
genitalia; and the Japanese art of kinbaku, or bondage. As girls
lay bound but defiant and glistening petals assume suggestive
shapes, Araki plays constantly with patterns of subjugation and
emancipation, death and desire and with the slippage between serene
image and shock. Describing his bondage photographs as 'a
collaboration between the subject and the photographer', Araki
seeks to come closer to his female subjects through photography,
emphasizing the role of spoken conversation between himself and the
model. In his native Japan, he has attained cult status for many
women who feel liberated by his readiness to photograph the
expression of their desire.
