Published in conjunction with an Austrian exhibition of Nobuyoshi Araki’s work |
Hardcover | 272 pages | 11.6 x 8.3 x 0.7 inches
Language: English & German
Condition: Brand New
A provocative and intimate survey of Nobuyoshi Araki’s multifaceted photographic universe, Tokyo Comedy presents the artist’s iconic portraits, nudes, fetish and bondage scenes, cityscapes, and the ever-present Araki lizard. Through over 200 black-and-white plates, Araki’s work captures the raw energy, sensuality, and contradictions of contemporary Tokyo life.
Featuring essays by Elfriede Jelinek, Toshihara Ito, and Christian Kravagna, this catalogue situates Araki’s images within the broader context of Japanese photography and global art discourse. Additional materials include a chronology, exhibition lists, and a bibliography.
Published in English and German, this volume is an essential reference for collectors and admirers of Araki’s bold vision, Japanese photography, and avant-garde contemporary art.
Intermission exists in the space between documentation and devotion an ongoing archive of cultural fragments that refuse to vanish. Each title within our portfolio is selected not for trend, but for tension: between what was meant to disappear and what insists on remaining.
We work with objects that speak quietly but persistently publications, recordings, and editions that define the undercurrents of art, sound, and design. Together they form a living record of marginal brilliance, a collection that privileges significance over scale.
The Story
Intermission exists in the space between documentation and devotion an ongoing archive of cultural fragments that refuse to vanish. Each title within our portfolio is selected not for trend, but for tension: between what was meant to disappear and what insists on remaining.
We work with objects that speak quietly but persistently publications, recordings, and editions that define the undercurrents of art, sound, and design. Together they form a living record of marginal brilliance, a collection that privileges significance over scale.
Every Intermission title is handled as an artifact. We believe that preservation is an act of reverence one that begins the moment you open a cover or unspool a tape.
To experience a piece, do so slowly. Allow the air to touch the paper, let light fall softly over each page. Avoid excess pressure; handle edges rather than surfaces. Each mark, fold, or patina is part of its passage through time evidence of care rather than decay.
We encourage collectors to engage not only with the content, but with the gesture of preservation itself: a quiet commitment to memory.
