Nobuyoshi Araki
Untitled, Painted Photograph, Landscape by Nobuyoshi Araki

About the Item

"Untitled", acrylic paint embellished silver gelatin photograph, signed in black and red ink on verso of work. Photograph depicting a stark landscape with telephone wires accented in blue, red, pink and yellow. Unframed The artist created over painted photographs including this work off of view from his balcony window after the death of his wife in 1990 from ovarian cancer. Araki examined various views of the sky to depict the landscape in an emotive way and hand embellished each work in paint. Nobuyoshi Araki, born in Tokyo, Japan 1940, is one of Japan's foremost contemporary artists and one of the world's most controversial photographers. His work has drawn worldwide attention notably for its erotic content, which blurs the lines between art and photography. He studied photography at Chiba University, before moving on to work at advertising agency Dentsu; here he met and married Yōko Araki. During their married life Araki took abundant images of his wife before she died in 1990; he published Sentimental Journey, 1971 - photographs taken while on their honeymoon, and Winter Journey, 1991 - images taken during her last days, amongst others. Araki is part of a generation of artists who emerged in the 1960s as Japan was recovering from the Second World War. The extreme growth, urbanisation and overt commercialism influenced him, and can be seen throughout his work, for example karaoke bars, Japanese toys and busy cityscapes often feature. He likewise often reflects Japanese traditions, in both historical and stylised references; his Kinbaku series examines the art of bondage, also seen in 67 Shooting Back. Known for his diary-like documentation of everyday life, he has gone on to publish hundreds of books, create films, and in recent years photograph musicians Lady Gaga and Bjork. As one of the most prolific artists worldwide, his photography has been exhibited internationally in both individual and group exhibitions, with works residing in many significant public and private collections including the Tate Modern and San Francisco Museum of Modern Art. Nobuyoshi Araki’s photographs have won many important awards, including the aforementioned 1964 prize for Satchin, the 1990 Shashin-no-kai prize from the Photographic Society of Japan, the 1991 7th Higashjkawa Prize, the 1994 Japan Inter-Design Forum Grand Prix, and most recently the 2008 Austrian Decoration of Honour for Science and Arts.

  • Vintage Silver Gelatin Signed Photograph Samuel Gottscho Garden Flowers Photo NY
    By Samuel Gottscho
    Located in Surfside, FL
    Vintage hand signed and stamp signed with the photographers stamp and numbered photo of trilliums. Samuel Herman Gottscho (February 8, 1875 - January 28, 1971) was an American architectural, landscape, and nature photographer. Samuel Gottscho was born in Brooklyn in New York City. He acquired his first camera in 1896 and took his first photograph at Coney Island. From 1896 to 1920 he photographed part-time, specializing in houses and gardens, as he particularly enjoyed nature, rural life, and landscapes. After attending several architectural photograph exhibitions, Gottscho decided to perfect and improve his own work and sought out several architects and landscape architects. After twenty-three years as a traveling lace and fabric salesman, at an age when most people would have given up their youthful dreams, Gottscho became a professional commercial photographer at the age of 50. His son-in-law William Schleisner joined Gottscho in his business in 1935. During this time his photographs appeared in and on the covers of American Architect and Architecture, Architectural Record. His portraits and architectural photography regularly appeared in articles in the New York Times. His photographs of private homes in the New York and Connecticut suburbs often appeared in home decoration magazines. From the early 1940s to the late 1960s, he was a regular contributor to the Times of illustrated articles on wildflowers. the meticulous, adoring pictures of New York City architecture and interiors that he took at his creative peak in the late 1920's and early 30's are finding a new audience, placing him more firmly in the ranks of the great architectural photographers of his day, like Ezra Stoller, Julius Shulman and Ken and Bill Hedrich. the Museum of the City of New York, which has one of the largest archives of Gottscho's work, showed about 150 of his best city scenes in an exhibition called "The Mythic City: Photographs of New York...

  • Dodger Stadium Sky High
    By Pete Kasprzak
    Located in Los Angeles, CA
    Pete Kasprzak’s passion for city life is expressed in his dynamic urban artworks. Kasprzak’s artworks express energy and life with animated brush strokes. He adds dynamic movement and texture with oil and acrylic paint on his mixed media cityscape artworks. “Every work of art I create portrays a symbolic visual of the urban culture surrounding me. I give my artworks depth and movement with carefully chosen brush strokes lying on top of them. Some of my pieces have few strokes and sometimes they have many. It depends on the energy and motion I want to reflect in the artwork.” Pete Kasprzak created this one-of-a-kind 11-inch high by 14-inch wide mixed media artwork by applying acrylic paint on a photograph. The unique textures and reflection of the paint set themselves apart from the smooth background. It is signed with the artist's initials on the front; and signed, titled, and dated on the back. Affordable U.S. and global shipping is available. A certificate of authenticity issued by the art gallery is included. Kasprzak’s artworks have been exhibited throughout the United States and Canada. He has been a featured artist in “The Artist Project”, one of North America’s largest art shows, winning the “People’s Choice Award”. Successful collaboration pieces include artworks featuring Motley Crue, Rob Zombie, Jon 5, Mix Master Mike, Tommy Lee, and Phil X from Bon Jovi. Kasprzak is always striving to let his creativity express in new forms. Kasprzak has developed a vibrant style of art that has been exhibited across Canada and the United States.
