"Violence" is a collection of works by Japanese photographer Osamu Nagahama (1941-). Born in Nagoya, he graduated from Tama Art University, studied under Yoshihiro Tachiki, and became independent in 1966. He has built a powerful photographic expression by delving deeply into the world of outlaws and counterculture, with works such as "The Island of Hot, Long Nights," which captures the reality of Okinawa, "HELL'S ANGELS," which documents American biker culture, and "My Blues Road," which follows blues musicians. This book, published in 1994, is a collection of works centered on color nudes featuring multiple female models. While boldly capturing the sensual expressions and bodies of the women, it is interspersed with urban landscapes, monochrome photographs of men in leather clothing, and experimental graphics combining vivid colors and typography. The rough yet sophisticated composition is striking and sets it apart from typical glamour photography books, and Nagahama's street sensibility and rebellious spirit are evident throughout. The book also includes a blurb by author Arimasa Osawa. This is a unique work by Nagahama, where the beauty of women and the violent energy of the city intersect.
