Photographer Nobuyoshi Araki's photo book "Naked Face by Araki (Signed & Illusted)". This book is a compilation of the series "Naked Face" from 1997 to 2015 in the magazine "Da Vinci", which shoots only men's faces regardless of genre. Beat Takeshi decorates the beginning of the series and the beginning of this book. And Takeshi Kitano decorates the end of the book, but only this one was taken for the photo book. This series seems to have been planned based on Araki's words, ``The last is the face,'' but Araki also said, ``The face is the most exposed and obscene.'' obsession can be seen everywhere. In this book, close-ups of the faces of more than 200 celebrities are recorded in black and white. “In ‘Hadaka no Kao’, we face each other properly, confront each other, and even if it’s a match, we shoot each other’s energies and the sparks fly. It's not the same as slashing with Takemitsu just after an encounter.It's a series that feels like it's a serious fight, a serious fight." (From an interview with Araki). Signed and illustrated by the photographer .
