I know a lot of folks love Nobuyoshi Araki and I’m with them about 35% of the time. This weekend I watched “Arakimentary” and frankly it just didn’t do it for me. The Documentary was interesting enough and Araki seems like a huge personality – but I feel like I need a little bit more – especially as it pertains to the images he creates. It seems like he’s not interested in the dichotomy between his pornography, commercial, and his personal work – which to me is the more interesting thing when you look at his entire body of work. Clearly your milage may vary.
I rented a copy from netflix, you might have heard of them.
