"Nobuyoshi Araki's Fake Reportage (Fourth Printing, With OBI)" is a photobook by Nobuyoshi Araki, one of Japan's leading photographers. This book compiles a series of articles from the culture magazine "Weekend Super," which was created by Akira Suei, who was also the editor and designed the book. In the late 70s and 80s, Araki collaborated with Suei on magazine serializations and photobooks, and later, in his book "Genius and Death" (2013), Araki recalled, "It's as if Suei created my 80s." This book begins with "Oh! The Emperor's Birthday," which describes Araki's visit to the Imperial Palace on April 29th, the birthday of Emperor Showa, and continues with "The Sad Woman, Aki Yashiro," an interview with Aki Yashiro; "Seawater Lust," a trip to a summer beach; "A Tour of Tokyo Castles," a visit to a luxurious love hotel; and "Japan's Shameful Room," a parody of "My Shameful Room" (referring to Araki's workspace), a work he exhibited at "Japan: A Self-Portrait" held in New York in 1979, during the serialization of the book. Based on themes that seem to have been planned according to Araki's interests, the book documents his experiences with photographs and text. With dust jacket. 4th printing.
