Published to celebrate Nobuyoshi Araki’s 63rd birthday, “Araki by Araki: The Photographer’s Personal Selection 1963–2002” is an exhaustive record of his forty-year career. The volume features 2,002 photographs chosen by the artist himself, arranged chronologically to trace his unique vision across over 400 books of work. This collection reveals the many faces of Araki: the “photomaniac” sex-trade voyeur, the chronicler of Tokyo’s changing skyline, the tender husband documenting his married life, and the avant-garde experimentalist. With high-quality duotone and color printing, the book includes a timeline and candid commentary from Araki at the back, offering a deeply personal insight into one of the most prolific and controversial figures in modern art.
