Published in 2000, this is Araki Nobuyoshi's first collection of Polaroid works. It features a selection of nearly 2,000 images, selected from his extensive collection of photographs. From nudes, kimonos, and bondage to Naoto Takenaka, Miho Nakayama, Ciro, still life, and street photography, the collection is full of Araki's signature style. The interview with photography critic Kotaro Izawa at the end of the book is also well-read, summarizing Araki's thoughts on the appeal of Polaroid through keywords such as "a camera that doesn't let you grow up," "the scent of secrecy, the scent of danger," "making everything 'now,'" and "photographing women and life in perfect squares." Araki's commentary is as follows: "I often say 'naughty,' but Polaroid has a sense of naughtiness. It has a mischievous feeling, doesn't it? It has the pleasure of a childhood or boyhood sensibility. Polaroid never grows up. That's why it's perfect for 'naughty.' "I get excited when I'm taking pictures." This is a limited edition and
comes with a Polaroid signed by the photographer .
