Nobuyoshi Araki
This exhibition marks Araki's 11th exhibition with the Taka Ishii gallery and will consist of a series of new color and B&W photographic works.
When Araki says "All women are beautiful," it is not a metaphor. In fact, he took many photographs of the aura of dying flowers and married middle-aged women. Araki's emotions towards the subject lie etched in all of these photographs. However, he does not just stay in love with the subject. As he says, "I took many censorable photographs that I cannot include in publications. But I think the crazier, the better." He expresses his rebellious spirit as an artist.
This exhibition, which is being held on the occasion of the artist's 67th birthday, consists of 100 photographs including older unexhibited works as well as Araki's newest photographs.
