Ueda Seishiro: Kinbaku Photo Senshu (1971)

Ueda Seishiro was a (younger) friend of Itoh Seiu.

Ueda was responsible for the tying in a special issue of Yomikiri Romance in the summer of 1952, something Master ‘K’, in The Beauty of Kinbaku, calls this ”the first commercial publication completely dedicated to shibari/kinbaku photography (…) a groundbreaking event in SM publishing”. See my earlier post here: Yomikiri Romance

According to SMpedia, Ueda attended Itohs funeral in 1961.

In the early 1970s, Ueda published a series of photo-book anthologies called ”Kinbaku Photo Senshu” (緊縛フォト選集). In many of the photos, a table is tilted on the side or upside-down and put to good use. I also recognize some of the photos from another publication from the same time-period: Kinbaku-bi. See my earlier posts here: Kinbaku-bi

Here are some examples from three ”Kinbaku Photo Senshu”-books:

エロスの狂宴 (January 1971)

恍惚の美学 (March 1971)

薔薇聖女 (April 1971)

PS

Ueda was also responsible for the bondage in the movie ”Daydreams” (白日夢), directed by Tetsuji Takechi, based on a script by Tanizaki Yunichiro. Please note that there are four versions of ”Daydreams”, from 1964, 1981, 1987 and 2009, Ueda only did the bondage for the 1981-version. It is available (as are many other movies) with English subtitles here: http://japaneiga.free.fr/pinku.html

緊縛美 – Kinbaku-bi

Issues 12 (1971) and 2 (1972) of the pocket-size photo-magazine ”Kinbaku-bi”. Again several creative uses of furniture…

Update: The rope work is probably by Ueda Seishiro.

緊縛美 (Kinbaku-bi, Beautiful Bondage) (1971)

This pocket-size photo-book has quite a few images with creative uses of furniture…

I have found very little information about this publication, it seems only a few issues were published in 1971-1972. As always – if you have more information, I would be happy to hear from you.

Update: The ropework is probably by Ueda Seishiro.

Ueda Seishiro and Itoh Seiu: 読切ロマンス　(Yomikiri Romance), 1952 and 1953

In summer 1952 (the same summer that the word ”kinbaku” was first used in Kitan Club) and then again early 1953, the magazine ”Yomikiri Romance”, that earlier had sometimes included a few bondage pictures, made two special issues on this theme.

The first one was published under the supervision of Ueda Seishiro, a budding nawashi, editor and close associate with Itoh Seiu. The special issue was given the title ”Nudo Fuzoku Arubamu” (Album with Various Nudes).

Master K, in his book The Beauty of Kinbaku, calls this ”the first commercial publication completely dedicated to shibari/kinbaku photography (…) a groundbreaking event in SM publishing” (p. 51).

Faviola Llervu has made a translation of a text by Ueda in this issue, now available on the website Kinbakunomicon, here: http://www.wallflowercodex.com/kinbakunomicon/1952yokip1.html

Early next year (1953) ”Yomikiri Romance”, published a second special issue, now in a smaller format. This time, it was Itoh Seiu himself who tied and supervised it. The issue was given the title ”Etsugyaku Koukotsu To” (Graphic Depiction of Ecstasy in Pleasure and Pain).

(The first five images above are from ”Nudo Fuzoku Arubamu”, the last three are from ”Etsugyaku Koukotsu To”.)
