Eikoh Hosoe

Hosoe Kamaitachi

Eikoh Hosoe (1933- ) is among Japan's most pre-eminent photographers and cultural ambassadors. His photographic manipulations serve to heighten the dramatic, elemental, and psychological intensity of his images, as seen especially in the collaborations with Butoh dancer Tatsumi Hijikata and author Yukio Mishima. Though renowned for his studies of naked flesh, his subject matter has also included stark landscapes, cityscapes, and the architecture of Gaudi.
