Photographer Masahisa Fukase (1934–2012) carved out a unique place in the history of 1960s Japanese photography by focusing on his personal life. He trained his camera on those immediately around him: his wife Yoko, his extended family, his cat. Yet, while exposing his own life through a loving gaze and a carefree sense of humor, he simultaneously set out to explore the madness deep within himself. Fukase's career was tragically cut short when he suffered a fall in 1992, subsequently suffering severe memory loss and aphasia. He never took photographs again. This retrospective collection pays intimate tribute to his entire body of work.
