Nobuyoshi Araki - Yoko My Love (荒木 経惟 わが愛、陽子), Asahi Sonorama, 1978, Tokyo

 

Hardcover with dustjacket.

"Waga Ai, Yoko" is the great sequel, published in Asahi's prestigious collection "Sonorama Shashin", of Nobuyoshi Arkai's real debut Sentimental Journey (1971) that initiated in Japan the subjective genre of "I-Photography" (Shi-Shashin) for which Araki is best known, which considerably blurs the boundary between public and private life, in his case often intertwined with his sexual life. "Yoko My Love" features a large number of quite raw b&w pictures of Araki's wife Yoko, from 1968 to 1977, including some from the said 1971 opus, that represent and sum up the casual intimacy of her life. A beautiful testimony and photobook to which echoes Sentimental na Tabi: Fuyu no Tabi (1991) at Yoko's death. (A Japanese Book)
