Masahisa Fukase - Hibi Postcards
Comprising 18 images selected from Masahisa Fukase's Hibi series.
Hibi is literally a series of street photographs in which each of the black and white images painstakingly attend to the road’s surface – the worn road-markings, the fading lines and arrows eroded by the city’s innumerable inhabitants, a web of fissures in the asphalt. In 1992, Fukase printed and painted the works for a solo exhibition, 'Private Scenes ‘92', held at Nikon Salon in Tokyo. He overlaid a set of bromide prints with fluid drawings in brightly coloured inks and on every image the physical presence of the artist is traced, a shadow-presence which seems to offer a reading, an interpretation but one that can never be fully resolved. Thanks to MACK (London).
13.5 cm x 10.9 cm, 18 postcards, MACK (London).
