** KINBAKU SALONG **

Time: 18.00–21.30

Bergborg presents a series of evenings with introductions to some of the pioneers in the history of Kinbaku.

This evening is about NUREKI CHIMUO (1930-2013)

The impact of Nureki on Japanese rope culture is unique. In his role as a writer, he has also been an influential historian of this culture. Writing erotic stories in Kitan Club already in the early 1950s, Nureki grew close to Minomura Kou. As Minomura fell ill in 1980, Nureki took over his tying for many magazines. For over a decade, Nureki then collaborated with master photographer Sugiura Norio – together they created an original aesthetic that has come to be iconic. Nureki was also the central figure of Kinbiken, the "Society for the study of the beauty of bondage", where Naka Akira discovered rope. Incredibly active long into his old age, Nureki wrote a book entitled "Kinbaku - for as long as I live" at age 78, and the same year made an awesome video tying together with his deshi Naka Akira. Even in the year of his death, at 83 years of age, Nureki published a small book of recently taken kinbaku photos with Saotome Hiromi named "The Room of the Morning Light".

This will be an evening of reflection and learning, but also of pleasure.
There will be rare books and old magazines, translated texts, movie-clips, and excerpts from original interviews not yet published.
Bring an open mind, a pen and a notebook. And, of course, bring your ropes...
