Parr/Badger III, 37. Nicht bei Heiting/Ryuichi. – Einzige Ausgabe, selten. – Text in japanisch und englisch. – „Kishin Shinoyama & his mad crew, challenged Brazil, the land of dazzling sex-craze at the other end of the globe!! Here!! the human document of his bitter-comic struggle for 25 days !“ – „If sex sells, then sun, sand and Brazilian beauties in conjunction with sex sells even more. Several Pirelli calendars have been shot in Rio de Janeiro, and it seems a natural destination when product – Hitachi electric shavers – is being marked as ‚sexy‘, and the shooting budget allows it. Kishin Shinoyama is one of Japan’s best-known commercial photographers, probably the country’s most successful commercial photographer, renowned for his celebrity potraits and his female nudes, where he rivals even Nobuyoshi Araki. … His nude work can tend towards the arty-prtentious – shades of Bill Brandt – but in this vibrant company book, where it is doing a straightforward selling job, it shines in its natural setting. Like Immagini per una Industria, this is a fun book, but the photography is rather better than in the Italian volume, anticipating Bruce Weber, David Alan Harvey and other photographers of the Copacabana scene and the Rio Carnival“ (Parr/Badger). – Von leichten Gebrauchs- und Altersspuren abgesehen, gut erhalten.
