Araki - Reviews
"Vale la pena mirar las fotos del japonés Araki que se ha puesto de moda y resulta que vende un enorme libro con portada rosa, pero vale 1.750€ y dicen que se agota y va a subir. (…) Lo que sucede en la ceremonia del té puede suceder en el sexo, que aquí sí es erotismo."La Vanguardia, BarcelonaSpain |

I bought this incredible piece of art februari 2004 and I am now the very proud owner of book number 1928 of this limited edition. I took my breath away. The intens quality of the colours, each page is frozen art, each page could become a new piece of art.
The price, 2000 euro, is a bargain considering the intens pleasure of being aware that only 2500 people on this planet in time will own this book. The texture of the paper in itself should be enough for anyone to become part of this artform. This is a book that makes you discover new emotions gliding with fingertips over its exterior and than guides you into a world of perfection. Japanese perfection in every sense. It contains every wish, every desire, any form of beauty you can imagine and disturb you profoundly at the same time. It is food for thought. It is Akira. Sander van HoveNetherlands |

"Com um volume sobre o trabahlo de Araki, numa encuadernaçao de luxo, a editora TASCHEN vem repôr toda a verdade sobre este fotógrafo japonés. Para além das populares fotos a preto e branco sadomasoquistas de mulheres que tornaran Araki mundialmente conhecido, esta obra reproduz muitas das imagens a cores que o artista realizou nos últimos anos numa espécie de exaltaçao cínica do mundo maravilhoso. (...) Esta é uma obra fundamental para os que gostam de fotografia para redescobrir e reapreciar um dos fotógrafos mais marcantes e sedutores da actualidade."DIF, LisboaPortugal |

"Enjoué, pétillant et pétulant, entreprenant dès qu'une femme capte son attention, Araki est l'un de ces privilégiés qui ont eu la chance non seulement de vivre leurs fantasmes mais encore d'en vivre. A 61 ans, il continue à le faire avec un évident bonheur. Il a publié quelque deux cents albums de photos. Le dernier, aussi luxueux que volumineux (une quinzaine de kilos...), publié par TASCHEN sous le titre Araki, est le fruit d'une sélection par l'éditeur de presqu'un millier de ses photos."Le Monde, ParisFrance |

"Der Band des japanischen Weltklassefotografen ist eine Liga für sich ... Ein Bildband dieser Größenordnung ist wie ein lebendiger Organismus. Er lässt sich befühlen, beriechen und umarmen. Man kann ihm über den Rücken streichen wie einer schlafenden Katze. Der Araki-Bildband scheint schon auf den ersten Blick vor Potenz zu bersten."Financial Times Deutschland, HamburgGermany |

"Die Brisanz seiner Fotografien, die der Taschen-Verlag nun mit einer edel editierten Werkschau ehrt, ... scheint eine Geschichte von Verbot, Befreiung und Unterwerfung, vom erbitterten Kampf zwischen Tradition und Moderne zu erzählen."Die Welt, BerlinGermany |

"There's a whiff of corruption about even the most innocent of Nobuyoshi Araki's images.... Araki by Araki - a phonebook-fat retrospective of a lifetime's snapping."The Sunday Telegraph Magazine, LondonUnited Kingdom |
