Description

Nobuyoshi Araki is arguably Japan s greatest living photographer, and certainly its most controversial. The more than 300 books he has published over the last four decades attest to his inexhaustible creative energy, while his work, which often challenges social taboos surrounding sex and death, has drawn critical attention both at home and abroad. This major publication provides the most comprehensive overview yet of Araki s highly prolific forty-year career. Araki s key series of works are included alongside many new and previously unpublished photographs.
