Bokuju Kitan - Marvelous Tales of Black Ink by photographer Araki Nobuyoshi is a photographic exploration of body work and pornographic scenes - bondage combined with a touch of a black ink. The book remains rather provocative but also gives an imaginative and poetic dimension from Araki's point of view. The gelatine silver prints, enveloped in a beautiful red velvet covered edition, that have never been showcased before are also involving the dark sense of humor of the artist.
Araki Nobuyoshi's work in contemporary photography is between art and pornography, Japan's one of the most controversial artists.
