hugon Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 is called <a href="http://www.photoeye.com/templates/mShowDetailsbycat.cfm?Catalog=ZD128">"Love by Leica"</a>, where Araki explores the female nude with a Leica camera. The work is a departure from his S & M style erotica of women in bondage. Instead, the women engage the camera both sleepily and suggestively while lounging in bed. Supposedly the result is much more intimate and tender, if not quite love. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clive1 Posted June 4, 2007 Share Posted June 4, 2007 I leafed through a copy of this about three months ago at a Tokyo bookstore, so it can't really be described as "new." The photo-eye link gives publication date as 2006. Mediocre b&w photos of mostly plain Japanese women lazing around on beds, suggesting post-coital weariness on their parts, and post-career laziness on the part of the photographer, who is quite aware that his name and reputation will sell enough copies. Only for avid Araki fans. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
