(ARAKI, NOBUYOSHI). ARAKI, NOBUYOSHI & JEROME SANS ARAKI - LIMITED EDITION SIGNED BY THE PHOTOGRAPHERKoln, GERMANY, Benedikt Taschen Verlag., 2002, First Edition 1/2500. (ISBN: 3-8228-1292-7) Cloth in Dust Jacket, Boxed, Elephant Folio, 636pp, profusely illustrated in color and duotone. Text in English, German and French. With a biography and bibliography. "Known best for his intimate, snapshot-style images of women often tied up with ropes and of colorful, sensual flowers, Araki is an artist who reacts strongly to his emotions and uses photography to experience them more fully. Obsessed with women, Araki seeks to come closer to them through photography, using ropes like an embrace and the click of the shutter like a kiss. His work is at once shocking and mysteriously tender". Limited to two-thousand, five hundred copies worldwide, this massive volume (the first of Taschen's XXXL series) pares down decades of Nobuyoshi Araki's oeuvre into a thousand or so images that tell the story of the renowned Japanese photographer and comprise the ultimate retrospective collection of his work. A pristine copy numbered and BOLDLY SIGNED by Araki in black ink on the title page housed in a clamshell box still sealed in the publisher's printed shipping box, as issued.
