Nobuyoshi Araki’s “May 25th, Showa 15 Year” show currently on view at Artspace AM in Tokyo
In celebration of Araki’s 85th birthday, this exhibition reflects Araki’s lifelong focus on time and memory. Running through July 7th, his wedding anniversary with late wife Yoko, it features 200 recent color photographs taken on 35mm film between December 2024 and May 2025, alongside 300 Polaroids from the late 1990s to 2010. These include intimate images of flowers, women, banquets, his cat Chiro, and the balcony he shared with Yoko. The images are a direct and personal record of his life, grounded in everyday scenes and shaped by loss and continuity.
On view until July 7th
