Description

Masahisa Fukase's "Private Scenes" is a culmination of his career as a writer, featuring a group of prints that were presented twice in exhibitions. In 1990, parts of the photographer's own body were reflected in images taken during travels to Europe and India. Two years later, in 1992, silver halide prints colored with watercolors were exhibited, showcasing Fukase's perspective as a photographer. The works included in "Private Scenes" are characterized by intense brushwork that deviates from the framework of photography. The photographs themselves depict hands, feet, faces, and city sketches, but everything depicted can be seen as a reflection of the photographer. This is why they are titled "Private Scenes". This book brings together original prints that were exhibited twice, during the last period of Fukase's lifetime. It offers a unique insight into her perspective as a photographer, born into a family running a photography studio.
