About the Item

AI NO HANA is a captivating photography book by renowned Japanese photographer Nobuyoshi Araki. Published in 2007 to coincide with an exhibition at the RAT HOLE Gallery, this collection features a series of flower photographs taken from 1990 to 2007. The book begins with an image of a magnolia flower captured on the anniversary of Araki's wife Yoko's passing, serving as a poignant starting point. Throughout the pages, Araki masterfully captures the fleeting moments of blooming life and the gradual decay of flowers, presenting them in a manner that is both beautiful and occasionally sensual. This book is a silent testament to the memories and love entrusted to the flowers, offering a deep and introspective look into the themes of life, death, and the passage of time. Located at our Los Angeles gallery.
