Provoke, a short-lived Japanese magazine founded in 1968, is now seen as a landmark in postwar photography. Across only three issues, it brought together protest photography, avant-garde art, and critical theory to reflect the turbulence of 1960s Japan, marked by mass student protests and cultural upheaval. Its pages fused dynamic cropping, serialized imagery, raw materials, and radical text-image interplay. With contributions from critic Koji Taki, poet Takahiko Okada, and photographers Takuma Nakahira, Yutaka Takanashi, and Daido Moriyama, Provoke challenged modern myths while shaping a new visual language—an emblem of collapse and renewal in Japanese art and society.
