Photography. My Passion. My Life.
WHAT
As an internationally renowned filmmaker and photographer who captured Hong Kong during the 1950s and 1960s, the late Fan Ho (1931-2016) devoted his life to evolving his craft. This exhibition is inspired by the journey explored in Ho’s photobook, ‘Photography. My Passion. My Life’. Published in 2021, the book has a number of highlights, the main one being the essay entitled ‘My Quest’, written by Ho himself in the 70’s, explaining his practice and stylistic journey as he was influenced by different movements in photography occurring at that time.
WHY
This exhibition is perfect for not only fans of Fan Ho, but also photography enthusiasts. Ho’s photography skills are unparalleled, and through his essay, ‘My Quest’, viewers get to learn about his interpretations of aesthetics, poetics, philosophy and synergy, as seen in the photographs in this exhibition.
