Koji TAKI
多木浩二
Taki graduated with a degree in art history from Tokyo University.
Taki began his professional career as a core figure at the Japanese photography magazine Provoke, which he co-founded and where he worked from 1968 to 1970. He also provided most of the funds for the magazine. However, because of his "aloofness" and greater focus on writing, he was best known as a critical writer rather than a visual artist. Next to art, he also wrote frequently on philosophy, politics and history.
Taki died at the age of 82 on Apr 13 in Hiratsuka, Kanagawa.
