Crooked stare / Direct Photography with a Positive Viewing Attitude

Autumn art。I participate in various events this October。T3 PHOTO FESTIVAL currently being held、TOKYO ART BOOK FAIR to be held from tomorrow、And from October 29th, a group exhibition of China-Japan exchanges will be held in the city "Ningbo" in Zhejiang Province, China.。From japan、With Gallery PLACE M hosted by photographer Masato Seto、TOTEM POLE PHOTO GALLERY、Also, artists from Ningbo, China will jointly exhibit.。From TPPG, Arimoto and Yuta Fuchigami、Yo Sakamoto、To Chobon is exhibiting。It is regrettable that I cannot go to the site due to travel restrictions due to the new coronavirus.、A pre-recorded video letter will be used as a greeting at the reception.。Including Mr. Hirotake Tang who made an effort to realize the exhibition、We would like to thank all the members of the Ningbo Photographers Association.。We would also like to thank the TPPG members for their interaction and translation work.。 Please see here for the details of the exhibition。The following is an exhibition statement translation (Google Translation) Curved direct view (Google Translation) "What is this world like?" Everyone must have a different answer.、Get answers using countless photos in front of the questioner。of course、This is the way photos provide us。Before the invention of photography、People are a language to describe the world、article、Sculpture、I could only use indirect means such as painting。The invention of photography provides the technology to directly copy the "world"。This technology、To save past phenomena、Is to save human visual objects directly in a 2D image.。This original copy technology、It seems to fill the difference in the depiction of people's world。However,、The history of direct photography development、For viewing by all photographers、Different perspectives、emotion、Unforeseen circumstances、And shows that there are different viewing methods。These differences、When we see the world through images、Show us different attitudes and different souls、The world looks more diverse and wonderful from a photographic point of view。 Because Japanese culture is a neighboring country of China、Influenced not only by Chinese culture but also by Western culture、It also has a unique cultural trace and human style in terms of photographic culture.。In the golden age of Japanese photography、Providing many outstanding photographers and photographic works to the world、Established a complete photography system。This will、Japanese photography is the only one in the world、Inspired the perception of photographic culture。A new generation of Japanese photographers、Modern thought and thought、Humanities、Under the influence of social science、I let go of my obsession with photography for photography。Their vision is broader、Photographs are more socially recognized、Introspective and independent。The expression style of photographic works is diverse and subtle。In the artistic temperament of the work、Some are introverted and stubborn、Some are obvious and distant。Relaxed and wild、It's like a series of portraits of Japanese social characters。 Similarly、Contemporary Chinese photography、Whether it's building an idealistic system or creating a photographic work、Overcoming the barrier between practicalism and aesthetic form、First completed the leap of modernity。With the help of great economic development、Chinese photographic culture has achieved unprecedented prosperity、Established a relatively independent and complete feature of photo discourse。Today's Chinese photographers have a strong cultural consciousness、Photographs are society、nation、history、It ’s more connected to reality.、The intersections with the world are more dense、The attitude of looking at the world is getting stronger。calm down。Many Chinese photographers facing the cultural trend of bread fast food、Still supporting the spirit of humanitarianism、Adopt a strict photographic attitude、Integrate unique display methods and value judgments throughout the shutter press process、Discover and take pictures with your eyes Modern Chinese story。 today、Summarizing the works of Chinese and Japanese photographers、Through the various display methods offered by photographers from both countries、Understanding the world from multiple angles、I aim to be able to interpret。at the same time、Through the different cultural backgrounds and ideas of the photographer、Exploring differences in the interpretation of social topics from the photographer's personal perspective under direct photography、Gain a more comprehensive and diverse understanding and understanding of the world。Society and self-awareness、This is also a visual solution for cross-cultural communication provided by photography。 Tang Haowu

Tokyo Debugger @Zen Foto Gallery

Shinya Arimoto Exhibition “Tokyo Debugger” 2021.1.14(collection) – 2.20(sat) @Zen Foto Gallery Many people have doubts about making works centered on the appearance of insects, as I have mainly produced portrait works for over 20 years.。However, in the statement of the previous work "Tokyo Circulation", "Tokyo in my eyes is、It's an ecosystem with a magnificent cycle. "。This is if the precise and calculated structure "honeycomb" made by a creature called a bee is a part of nature.、It was inspired by the idea that the city created by human beings is also a part of nature.。I once described the previous work and this work as "a relationship like the front and back of a coin".、For example, make sure that a piece of pure white paper has no back or front.、The human world and the insect world are also inextricably linked.、The little ones who have lived on this planet since ancient times are called "insect seniors" with respect.。Also, the title "Tokyo Debugger" has the simple meaning of "searching for bugs in Tokyo."、Is it really insects or human beings that are "debugged" in the history of the earth? With the metaphor。Maybe、The human world is insignificant compared to the history of senior insects.、Suddenly popping into their world、It may be a ephemeral existence that disappears quietly before long.。 —— Shinya Arimoto Happy New Year。Also thank you this year。 2021The first exhibition of the year will be held at Zen Foto Gallery in Roppongi。Roll-sized baryta prints made in the darkroom at the end of last year、It will be displayed in a well-framed manner。16All the × 20inch works have been reprinted for this time.。I hope you can see it at the venue.。A new photo book with the same name is also on sale in the gallery.。Please look for the hand。 In addition, from 19:00 on Saturday, January 30 during the session、At Zen Foto Gallery's Instagram account、We will deliver a talk live with photo critic Kenji Takazawa as a guest.。This time it will be a delivery-only event with no audience。Follow @zen_foto_gallery to watch。

The stock of photographic paper in Japan seems to be exhausted and I can't get it at all! This phenomenon did not start this year、It ’s worse than usual.。I searched for people for about two weeks、There seems to be no domestic stock。Reliance rope B&H also has a delivery time of 6-10 weeks。By the time the photographic paper arrives, the exhibition will begin! That's why I used only two rolls of photographic paper in the warehouse of ILFORD in the UK.、Arrange to have it sent by airmail in a hurry。Although the fare has been added to the price、It's an unavoidable expense to display using regular photographic paper。Stayed in the darkroom last weekend、I managed to complete 3 cuts by the deadline。It was a very thrilling battle。The image is a roll print waiting for a frame。From January 14th next year、It will be unveiled at ZEN FOTO GALLERY in Roppongi。 Obtaining photographic paper、We would like to thank Mr. Kojima, the owner of Lime Light Gallery in Osaka, for his efforts.。 The monk also runs、Photographer also runs、It was one act of such a december。
