Born to a family that ran a successful photo studio, Fukase was trained at the Nihon University College of Art's Photography Department. He rose to fame in the 1960s and maintained a close friendship with renowned Japanese photographers such as Daido Moriyama and Nobuyoshi Araki, standing together under the international spotlight.

As one of the pioneers of "private photography," Fukase weaved his own life experiences of love, loss, loneliness and depression into his artistic creation, with humor and sometimes borderline madness, according to the curators.
