A representative photographer of Japan, Keisuke Araki, known for his unique appearance and Alkery nickname. This book "Love on the Left Eye" is a collection of photographs published in 2014 in conjunction with the exhibition held at Taka Ishii Gallery. Araki who lost the vision of the right eye for central retinal artery occlusion disease in 2013, the previous year. However, the hand-held is taken against, and creation is continued, and the series created is this work. This series is painted black with the right half painted in the right half to give you a sense of the field of vision of your own closed right eye. The contrast between the clear left side and the painted right side is considered to be the metaphor of life and death (Eros and Thanatos) Araki has dealt with in his own photos. Araki's greatness is Araki's greatness: he suffers from cancer, loses his vision, resists physical inconvenience, increases his creative desire, acts like repelling adversity, and the ability to make even adversity a part of creation. I feel like I am telling you. The title of the usual coined word is twisted more than Ed van der Elsken's masterpiece. A rare book sold out early in the opening season. Limited to 300 copies.
