Nobuyoshi Araki is a contemporary Japanese photographer known for his erotic imagery and preoccupation with his hometown. He is one of Japan's best-known photographers. In addition to city scenes of Tokyo, he is particularly interested in portraying women of all social classes. His nude photography has repeatedly led to controversy and made Araki the enfant terrible of the Japanese art world. Similar to Helmut Newton, Araki is interested in subversive themes in the provocative staging of female nudes - such as bondage in the Japanese kinbaku style.
Born on 25 May 1940 in Tokyo, Araki studied photography at Chiba University and, after graduating in 1963, worked first as an advertising photographer and later as a freelance photojournalist. Araki eventually gave up press photography, concentrated on nudes and published numerous illustrated books. Araki regards photography as some kind of visual diary. The series "Sentimental Journey" for example is the documentation of his honeymoon with his wife Yoko, which, by his own admission, made him a photographer. The subjective sensation and perception of the world plays a decisive role in his art. After the death of his wife, love became the principal theme in his works. Therefore the photographs of artfully tied-up women can be read as the intimate expression of himself, beeing tangled up in his yearning and past. "I tie womens bodies up becaus I know their souls cant be tied. Only the physical self can be tied. Putting a rope round a women is like putting an arm round her.", he explains. Shibari is the erotic art of binding, Araki exposes on his photographs. It is derived from the traditional military art of tying up, called Hoj jutsu. Hence his "Bondage" series is much more than mere provocation or pornography. It refers to traditions of Japans cultural history, like the Shunga, erotic paintings of the 18th and 19th century, linking them to the artists subjective world view.
