AISHONANZUKA Hong Kong is pleased to present the first solo exhibition by Nobuyoshi Araki from 13th December 2014 until 18 January 2015.
This first Hong Kong exhibition will present approximately 10pieces of valuable vintage print at that time from the series “Theater of Love” which was taken around 1965. Also this exhibition will present approximately 10pieces of selected modern print from Araki’s most famous photobook “Sentimental Journey” which was published at his own expense on 1971.
Araki’s beloved wife Yoko Aoki (maiden name) was appeared in the “Theater of Love”. Around 6 years later Araki published “Sentimental Journey” which recorded his honeymoon with Yoko Aoki. Through these two series, people can feel the characteristics of Araki’s work “intensive relationship with the object” and Araki’s style of love.

His photographic project “Satchin” published in 1964 earned him the first Taiyo Award. He was married with Yoko Aoki in 1971, then published the photobook “Sentimental Journey”. After that he published more that 400pieces of photobook and won lots of rewards.
