Embrace
€157.00
An iconic figure of Japanese photography, Hosoeis more concerned with aspects of form than with exploring sexual passion. His depictions of the body have a Surrealist quality, yet also serves to render the flesh totally abstract and strange. Signed copy
The Embrace series was produced in 1969-1970. Unlike Araki, Hosoe is more concerned with aspects of form than with exploring sexual passion. Highly collectable. Preface by a great Japanese novelist Yukio Mishima.
