"Lyceum" is a photobook by Japanese photographer Akira Ohno. Having worked in advertising photography in the United States, photographing models with heavy makeup, Ohno turned his attention to the reality of the body, which differs from the image of women presented in advertisements. Composed mainly of images that boldly capture the female body, especially from behind, it brings to light the individuality and presence of the body itself, from a perspective different from typical portraits that tell a story through the face and expression. As symbolized by the introductory text at the time of publication, "A bare bottom may be a woman's true face," the work looks at the vulnerable appearance revealed by the body as a kind of "reality," rather than a contrived expression. Published in 1994 by Fuga Shobo, this is an interesting book for understanding Ohno's photographic expression, as he has also published "BALI," "BACKYARD," and "BILLY THE KID."
