Olivier Malingue is pleased to present a solo exhibition of Nobuyoshi Araki’s photographs, featuring works spanning the breadth of his career.
About
The selected images offer an overarching view of the leading recurrent subjects that have consumed Araki ever since he published his first photobook in 1970.
A cult figure whose reputation precedes him, Nobuyoshi Araki is arguably Japan's greatest living photographer, and certainly its most controversial. Famous for his eroticised nude and bondage photography, Araki’s practice often challenges social taboos surrounding sex and death, drawing critical attention worldwide, while his inexhaustible creative energy is attested by the 500+ books published over the last five decades.
The works presented in this exhibition will touch upon many of his favoured subjects from some of his most celebrated series, including: Tokyo Nostalgia, Tokyo Nude, Tokyo Comedy, Kinbaku, and Flowers.
