Michael Hoppen discusses his passion for erotic Japanese art...
"I am not a Shunga expert. I am a visual collector, I just know what I like."
Europes foremonst dealer in Japanese photography, Hoppen is a man with a taste for the exotic: a tireless champion of Nobuyoshi Araki's work, his personal favourites include the artist's contraversial kinbaku photographs, which depict the art of rope bondage.
"For Araki, it' not about the knot-tying, it's about the change in the flesh's colour!"
