Neo-Japonism: Photo from EIKOH HOSOE '' Ordeal by Roses'' YUKIO MISHIMA

09-09,2010

TITLE: Ordeal by Roses (Barakei)
ARTIST: Eikoh Hosoe
MODEL: YUKIO MISHIMA
WORK DATE: 1961

One of my favorites.
So strong and yet vain -
strikingly beautiful and sexy.
He looks at you so straight so that you feel pushed and humble away from his energy.

I really like the photos from the post war to the late 60's in Japan
- they have got a special strong contrast in lights and shadows, and also the theme of crushed elements- OLD and MODERN.
