Nobuyoshi Araki is one of Japan's leading photographers, whose exhibition at the Tokyo Photographic Art Museum is still fresh in our memory. This book, "Xerox Photo Album," is the 13th volume of the 20-volume Araki Nobuyoshi Complete Works published by Heibonsha. Before his debut as a photographer with "Sentimental Journey," in 1970, while working for Dentsu, he borrowed the company's Xerox (copy machine) and hand-made the photo book "Nobuyoshi Araki Photo Album." This photo album, which consists of 25 volumes (all limited to 70 copies), was created by Araki, who was a smoldering company employee, "for learning (masturbation) and self-promotion (geijutsu sagyo)," and both the method and expression show the enthusiasm of Araki's young days for creation. This book contains a copy of "Nobuyoshi Araki Photo Album" in the first half, and works using color copies from the 1990s in the second half. At the end of the book, illustrator Shinbo Minami has contributed an essay on Araki, and Araki himself also writes an explanation. Obi missing.
