"Every one of the upside -down clan reflected in the focus glass dies. The photoer that shows the appearance is a record device for death." - Masahisa Fukase

In August 1971, Masahisa Fukase descends in Mitsuka -cho, northern Hokkaido with his wife Yoko. He was the first time in over a dozen years to visit his hometown. Fukase's family is a family that runs a photo studio for three generations, and his younger brother Ryuki took over the third generation. Fukase reunited with a family who grew into a large household due to his brother and sister's family, and decided to collect them at the photo studio's story (shooting studio) and take a commemorative photo of the family. But it wasn't just the format of a family photo. He put a half -naked wife in his family in his family.
This unusual family photo was later taken by Fukase's hand, welcoming his wife as well as various female models. By being taken fixed point, the change in the family's annual year is confirmed precisely, which is a record of the fragments of the family's history, but the fiction of Fukase is mixed everywhere. As can be seen from the fact that Fukase describes the strange family photos that have been completed in this way, the format of a traditional family photo by mixing elements that are not suitable for family photos. Ironic was one of the purposes.
The shooting around the Fukase family was interrupted after five years, but in 1985, the old man of Fukase's father, the elderly, began again. Two years later, he was shot on his father's funeral day, and finally completed the day when Fukase Photo Studies went out of business, that is, the family of family four. Initially, this work was started lightly as a parody of traditional family photos, and this work was taken over nearly 20 years, resulting in a cruel record of the prosperity of the family. Finished.

This book is a new version of the photo book "Family" published by Inter Press Corporation in 1991. This work, which was also the last book that Fukase worked on before her life, will be reborn after more than a quarter of a century. A portrait of a family taken at the Fukase Photo Studio is recorded in the order of shooting year, and at the end of the book, it contains an autobiography by Fukase, which was recorded in the original version, and this commentary by Tomo Kosuga, founder and director of Masahisa Fukase. It will be done.
