Text jap. - Ishiuchi has published three books: Apartment, Yokosuka Story and Suidobashi. The first two titles constitute two-thirds of a loose trilogy for which Ishiuchi is best known. Both of these books address the character of place, and are photographed with the Provoke movement as a clear influence. The images are forceful and bleak - both a deeply personal narrative and one that can be read as indicative of Japan''s national crisis after WWII. Ishiuchi is widely regarded as one of the most important female photographers since the 1970s. She is also known for her series titled "Mother''s," which memorialized her mother with images of her possessions. (Text Auct.

Graphically illustrated with reproductions of early photographs by noted Japanese photographers. Influenced by Andy Warhol''s "Index Book," which was published the previous year, this publication is a product of the artists'' collective called The Underground, which served as a powerful force in Japanese photography, and was, perhaps, best personified in the magazine Provoke.

„Kurata won the fifth Kimura Ihei Award in 1980 for his first book, "Flash Up." Both that book and this one tell multiple, overlapping stories, including that of the intoxicating, edgy abandon of Japanese nightlife with depictions of strippers, gangsters, and transvestites. Kurata has earned comparisons to Weegee with this imagery, however it also bears noting that he studied with Daido Moriyama for a year during the 1970s.“ (Auct. Swann Photographic Litertaure & Photographs, sale 2166, lot 154, New York, NY, 12 Dec. 2008).

Text jap. - The 3 monumental issues of this Japanese avant-garde publication were published in 1968 (one issue) and 1969 (two issues). Recognized today as a turning point in Japanese photography, "Provoke" was published during a period of national upheaval, when protest and dissension rocked the country. A publication that creatively investigated the relationship between language and art, "Provoke" sought a new, more radical photographic language and was both a highly political and artistic manifesto. The publication brought together some of the most important photographers of the period, including Koji Taki, Takuma Nakahira, Yutaka Takanashi, and Daido Moriyama. It also influenced many more, including Nobuyoshi Araki who said, famously that "it was like a bomb in Japanese photography." Although only three issues were published, the Provoke style continued to find new forms of expression in these photographers'' later books. "Provoke" is wholly a product of its era, representing youth and rage, defiance and the crisis of identity, and a rough, unmediated, blurred aesthetic that rose above the constraints of culture and time.
