Publisher: Images Modernes, 2001
Nobuyoshi Araki is arguably the most famous, and often controversial, contemporary Japanese photographer. Although his work has frequently provoked arrests for violating obscenity laws, Araki continues to turn his camera on 'areas heretofore censored and considered shameful in Japan' (History of Japanese Photography, 334). 'Mythologie is one of the rarest and most controversial books.' In this 'documentation of the Japanese sex industry… Araki’s view is that of the voracious photographer who cannot stop clicking, even when participating in the action himself. He is the inexhaustible voyeur.'
