Opis od sprzedawcy
Nobuyoshi Araki’s 1994 AaT ROOM edition Bokujū Kitan (墨汁綺譚 / Marvelous Tales of Black Ink) is a rare hardcover photobook published in a limited edition of 1,000 copies by Araki's own office, AaT ROOM.
It compiles works originally serialized in the magazine S&M Sniper. The title parodies Nagai Kafū's Bokutō Kitan (濹東綺譚), replacing “east” with “sumi” (墨 / ink) to create “墨汁綺譚” (Tales of Marvelous Ink).
The book features Araki’s signature monochromatic style: tightly bound nude women, over which he directly applied bold sumi ink calligraphy, scribbles, lines, and drawings by hand. This creates a hybrid of photography and ink painting, blending intense eroticism, decadence, artistic beauty, humor, and nihilism in classic Araki fashion.
Features include cloth binding with clear vinyl dust jacket, approx. 268 × 198 mm. Contents and layout differ from the later Heibonsha collected edition (1997) and the 2008 London exhibition version. A powerfully dark and provocative classic—very hard to obtain today.

Publisher: Aat Room
