The volume brings together 402 photographs across 288 pages, tracing the arc of Araki's concept of the \"I-Photograph\" from the self-published \u003cem\u003eSentimental Journey\u003c\/em\u003e of 1971 through to 2017.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003ePublication and Exhibition Context\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe catalogue is supervised by the Tokyo Photographic Art Museum, edited by Hiromi Kitazawa, and designed by Rie Shimoda. Its organising theme is Araki's relationship with his wife Yoko — from their meeting in 1968 until her death in 1990, and the sustained presence she continued to exert in his work thereafter. As Araki has stated, it was through Yoko that he became a photographer in the fullest sense. The exhibition title's open dash — \u003cem\u003e1971–2017–\u003c\/em\u003e — signals an ongoing trajectory rather than a closed retrospective.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe catalogue situates Yoko within Araki's broader practice of \"I-Photography\": an autobiographical mode that fuses eros and thanatos, the intimate and the urban, the domestic and the transgressive. Alongside photographs of Yoko, the volume includes work that registers her presence through absence — flowers, the cat Chiro, Tokyo street scenes, bodies in bondage — all recurring motifs in Araki's output across more than five decades and over 500 published photobooks.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eContributors\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003eTexts are contributed by: \u003cstrong\u003eGozo Yoshimasu\u003c\/strong\u003e (poet); \u003cstrong\u003eJuergen Teller\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eSeiichi Furuya\u003c\/strong\u003e, \u003cstrong\u003eMiyako Ishiuchi\u003c\/strong\u003e, and \u003cstrong\u003eDaido Moriyama\u003c\/strong\u003e (photographers); \u003cstrong\u003eToshiharu Ito\u003c\/strong\u003e (Professor, Department of Inter-Media Art, Tokyo University of the Arts); \u003cstrong\u003eFilippo Maggia\u003c\/strong\u003e (Director, Head of Projects, Fondazione Fotografica Modena); \u003cstrong\u003eMichio Kasahara\u003c\/strong\u003e (Tokyo Photographic Art Museum); and \u003cstrong\u003eHiromi Kitazawa\u003c\/strong\u003e (curator).\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis catalogue is part of our selection of \u003ca target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer nofollow\" href=\"\/collections\/japanese-photobooks\"\u003eJapanese Photobooks\u003c\/a\u003e.
