Product Description

Product Description

Japanese culture is different. Fascinatingly different. In his native Japan, Yasuji Watanabe from the trendy metropolis of Tokyo ranks among the stars of the younger generation of photographers. Though his oeuvre is in the tradition of the old master Nobuyoshi Araki, he has gone on to evolve his own unique erotic language of images. The girls in his pictures live out their erotic fantasies and obsessions in front of his camera. Watanabe understands them intuitively. He portrays the girls as they indulge in the pleasure of playing, as well as in their lust and sexuality, which can express itself as pain, loneliness, expectation, stimulation, melancholy and submission. An exciting visual trip into an exotic culture.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Spectacular New Vision of Japanese Erotica, 16 Dec 2008
Yasuji Watanabe is the editor-in-chief of the Japanese cult magazine, SNIPER, and is also considered to be one of Japan's leading non-conformist art photographers. Radical in the tradition of the old master Nobuyoshi Araki, Watanabe has nonetheless, crafted his own individual methodology and visual style here, which is based, in part, on some of the fashion trends taking place among Tokyo's youth. Whimsical and fun it may be - but make no mistake about it - this work is charged with a high-voltage sense of all things erotic. Watanabe's subjects are captured in the most playful of settings, but their brazen sense of provocative nudity and sexuality saturates everything. Like little costumed dolls they prance and posture, but they also offer themselves to be bound and tied-up and paraded as objects of sexual fantasy. There are so many disparate elements at play here it might be hard for some to grasp what it all means, but Watanabe's cohesive and fantastic style are what unifies this body of work. As a whole, this book is a visual diary of a young, ultra-inventive, and technically astute, photographer working at the height of his powers. At 10.5" x 10.5" and flawlessly packaged, this is a superb production and one of the most creative books of erotic art photography published this year.
