Japan's leading photographer, Nobuyoshi Araki's photo book "Flower Life Limited Edition". This book is a collection of photographs published in conjunction with exhibitions held at the Kyoto Museum of Contemporary Art and the Tokyo Photographic Art Museum, with the theme of "flowers" that Araki has been photographing for many years. Araki began photographing flowers in the early 1970s, when he took pictures of dying flowers in the graveyard of Jokanji Temple in Minowa, where his family lived. In 2004, he devoted himself to photographing flowers, and released series such as "Coloring Scenery", "Hanakyoku" and "Shikijo Hana". Fresh, vivid colors, and even decayed things are captured in various ways, such as close-up shots and shots set in vases. It can be said that it is a compilation of Araki's flower photography, which is lascivious about flowers. A new painting work "Flower painting" is also included. By the way, there is also a popular version and soft cover, but this is a special edition limited to 1501 copies, with nearly twice as many illustrations as the popular version, and the cover includes a "Polaroid" signed by Araki.
