Description
NOBUYOSHI ARAKI (*1940) | Untitled, Tokyo 1993 | Gelatin silver print, printed later on double-weight semi-matte paper, in perfect condition From the series ‘Erotos’ 53,2 x 35 cm Signed by the artist in pencil on the reverse LITERATURE Nobuyoshi Araki, Erotos, Libro Port Publishing 1993, s.p.; Nobuyoshi Araki, Araki. 40th Anniversary, Cologne 2020, p. 336 ‘Erotos’ is praised by critics as one of the most extraordinary projects by the legendary photographer Nobuyoshi Araki. In his repertoire of motifs, in his narrative mode, and in his photographic composition, he deviates significantly from his usual canon. In high-contrast close-ups of captivating sharpness, which he achieves through flashed macro photography, he primarily shows body parts as well as shining pipes, fruits, sidewalk cracks, or flowers, plunging deep into the erotic subconscious. ‘Erotos’ gilt als eines der außergewöhnlichsten Projekte des legendären Fotografen Nobuyoshi Araki. Im Motivrepertoire, im Erzählmodus und in der Aufnahmegestaltung weicht er darin von seiner üblichen Arbeitsweise signifikant ab. In kontrastreichen Close-ups von bestechender Schärfe, die er durch geblitzte Makroaufnahmen erreicht, zeigt er vor allem Körperteile sowie glänzende Rohre, Früchte, Gehwegrisse oder Blumen und taucht tief in das erotische Unterbewusstsein ein.
