‘Hong Kong Yesterday’ 《香港追憶》
Hong Kong Yesterday presents a singular vision of this enigmatic city by award winning photographer, Fan Ho. Black and white images capturing life in mid-century Hong Kong range from quiet voyeuristic tableaus to chaotic crowds, most focusing on the citys inhabitants. Businessmen, families, dockworkers, alleys, markets and street scenes are all rendered in a style that is simultaneously abstract and humanistic. Fan Ho was born in Shanghai in 1937; he immigrated to Hong Kong as child and passed away in 2016.
何藩最為知名的攝影集《香港追憶》，展現出香港五、六十年代的獨特景象。記錄本世紀中葉香港生活的黑白影像，從安靜的場景到熱鬧的人群，鏡頭大部分集中於香港自身上：商人、家庭、碼頭工人、小巷、市場和街道場色，作品均以抽象和人文主義的風格呈現。 何藩在攝影界有「一代宗師」之名，更被譽為「東方布列松」。1931 年出生於上海，1949 年移居香港，於2016年去世。
