About this Book

"Tokyo Comedy" is one of Nobuyoshi Araki's most playful and provocative photobooks, published by Korinsha in 1997.

This book captures the chaotic, erotic, and deeply humorous aspects of Tokyo. Street snaps, surreal erotic scenes, and intimate, diary-like depictions are visually fused.

The works included in this book explore themes of life, death, and sexuality against the backdrop of late 20th-century Japanese urban culture, interwoven with Araki's characteristic voyeuristic perspective, emotional depth, and absurd humor.

This first edition is a highly sought-after collector's item, especially among fans of contemporary Japanese photography and art books, particularly those drawn to Hirohiko Araki's unique storytelling style.
