Nobuyoshi Araki
1940
Nobuyoshi Araki is arguably Japan's greatest and most controversial living photographer. Most famous for his erotic nudes and sensual flower studies, his work challenges taboos and unabashedly confronts complex subject matter, most markedly sex and death.
Although inspired by Japanese Shunga, his work is thematically universal, as is evident by the international acclaim it has received. Araki has exhibited extensively worldwide, including Tokyo and Paris, generating international critical acclaim. His first major UK retrospective, Self, Life, Death, was held at the Barbican Art Gallery, London in 2005.
Renowned for clashing with the authorities, in 1988 police ordered the removal from sale the magazine Shashin Jidai, which featured the Japanese photographer's works; obscenity charges were levelled against the artist during a 1992 exhibition and 1993 saw the arrest of a gallery curator who dared to display Araki's graphic nudes. One gets the sense that Araki is a rebel bucking the system.
