On a street in Ebisu . A simple gallery with only two show windows will be the setting for "#1," a series of works by artist Hiroki Harada.
While a student at Musashino Art University, Hiroki Harada co-curated the "Lassen Exhibition" and "Ghost Photography Exhibition" in 2012. The following year, he published "What was Lassen? was published by Filmart Inc. the following year. Since that time, he has been focusing on the theme of "unknown authors" through his examination of ghost photography, and "Unknown Author #1" will be held as an extension of this project.
During the two-month period of the exhibition, there will be three exhibitions, (#1-1, #1-2, and #1-3), each of which will be exhibited two at a time, so it would be true to say that the exhibition will be over in a flash. The photographs' ambiguous perspectives, their historical nature, and their appearance of capturing something but not capturing anything at the same time, are sure to provoke your thoughts.
Incidentally, the "CAGE GALLERY" in Ebisu, the setting for this project, is <Hender SchemeThe company that manages the "Sukima" is said to be the same one that operates the "Sukima". . Please visit "Sukima" as well.
