Japanese men have been marked by tattoo artists for the past 300
years. Todays urbane Japanese youth continue the tradition, proudly
creating and wearing this ever changing art form. Over 530
breathtaking color photos display a vast range of Japanese tattoos,
from traditional full-body forms repleat with classical images
steeped in symbolism, including Horimono, to modern One-Point
style, heavily influenced by the cultures of the West.\nThe
fascinating text provides a glimpse of Japans youth culture and
recounts, through personal interviews, stories of Japanese masters
of the tattoo art, including Senseis Horihide, Horiyoshi III,
Horitoshi I, Horiyasu, and Horikoi. Readers will see some of the
most intricate tattoo art in the world, while traveling through
time from the 19th century Edo Floating World to the busy streets
of modern Tokyo.
