Hiroshi Watanabe

"Artifacts" Things from Japanese internment camps; Hiroshi Watanabe.



This series started when Hiroshi Watanabe was commissioned by the San Jose museum of art. The project was to photograph the city's Japantown. You can read the story about his work on "Artifacts" here
The Photographs are of a beautiful simplicity. Very well printed and with a great soft tonal range, as is all Hiroshi Watanabe's work. I had the opportunity seeing his work at the 8th "Angkor Photo Festival" (Siem Reap, Cambodia). Most of the work was from the series "Kabuki players", prints and presentation were of very high standard.
