ABOUT

‘Yoko’ is a reissue of photographer Masahisa Fukase’s (1934–2012) timeless masterpiece, originally published in 1978. Set against the backdrop of the post-war generation’s spirit, the iconic work contemplates the essential question of photography: the nature of relationships between two individuals, in this case, Fukase and his model and muse, Yoko. The reprint edition of this defining series in the photographer’s body of work faithfully includes all images and texts from the original book, along with newly incorporated elements such as an essay by Masako Toda and a message from Yoko Miyoshi, the woman who appears in Fukase’s photographs.
