Description

Hong Kong Yesterday presents a singular vision of this enigmatic city by award winning photographer, Fan Ho (1937-2016). Black and white images capturing life in mid-century Hong Kong range from quiet voyeuristic tableaus to chaotic crowds, most focusing on the city's inhabitants. Businessmen, families, dockworkers, alleys, markets and street scenes are all rendered in a style that is simultaneously abstract and humanistic.
