Japanese photographer Yasuhiro Yoshioka's photo book "Sodom's Paradise". Although he made his debut at the "Yomiuri Independent Exhibition" held in 1961, he was forced to withdraw his exhibited works because of "Obscenity", and in 1962 he published his 1st photo book mainly on those removed works. Published. An artist who challenged avant-garde creation and expression as if even the meaning of "human" was stripped through the strong contrast of monochrome and the depiction of the body using collage, etc., the early works were praised by the master Man Ray. I am. Since then, Yasuhiro Yoshioka, who has made a name for himself with still photographs of Kobo Abe, Hiroshi Teshigahara, Nagisa Oshima, and others, along with Eikoh Hosoe, was the flagship of avant-garde photographic art in the 1960s. This book is a collection of works published by Haga Bookstore in the early 70's, and is an avant-garde nude collection modeled on actress Mihiro Wakabayashi who was also active in movies such as Nagisa Oshima and Koji Wakamatsu. The book is divided into six chapters, with a unique composition that mixes color and monochrome, and the book design by Keisuke Nagatomo is stylish, and the texts by Nagisa Oshima and Kazuko Shiraishi are also interesting.
