Japanese Photography: Nobuyoshi Araki's Private Photography

No.4207069 View ViewReplyOriginalReport
Hello, I recently picked up a copy of "Araki" by Nobuyoshi Araki which contains decades of his work and shares Portraits, Street photography of Tokyo, and of course Nude portraits and erotic material.

In a section called "Private Photography" Araki has a portrait of another well renowned Japanese photographer of the 90's Hiromi "Hiromix" Toshikawa posing nude. I instantly recognized that the model in the photo was Hiromix since I'm a huge fan of her point and shoot photos as well, but I'm not too sure. Hiromix won the 11th New Cosmos of Photography award in March 1995. She was nominated by Nobuyoshi Araki for a series of photographs called Seventeen Girl Days. With that being said, I cannot find Articles or interviews from Araki or Hiromix saying they have collaborated online - it's a complete black hole.

Anyway, I scanned the photo of Hiromix posing since the image does not seem to exist online at all. If anyone has any information or can recognize that the woman is in fact Hiromix that would be cool.

Also, post photos or anecdotes from your favorite photographers from the Land of the Rising Sun as well. Thanks.
