Nobuyoshi Araki - Sentimental Journey: Okinawa Sequel (荒木経惟 属 センチメンタル な 旅, 沖縄-変), Self published, 1971, Tokyo

 

Softcover, printrun 1000 copies.

"When these volumes are viewed collectively, it becomes clear that Araki is working out a series of related ideas across a number of different publications: the public versus the private, the role of the photographer as a reporter, the contrast of the specific and the general, ideas of locale and narrative, and the very function of a photobook... Neither Okinawa or Tokyo includes Yoko, but they do address a different everyday life. Both are small format, and on each spread two photographs abut one another with no partitioning space between them, either side by side or one above the other. A generous amount of white space surrounds the pair, reinforcing the idea that they should be considered simultaneously, or even as one continuous image..." (Kaneko & Vartanian, Japanese Photobooks of the 1960s and 70s)
