Buenos Aires, a town of wild dogs, a villa, tango and football... there is a chaos and seduction in such a junky and hip town. Yet, its atmosphere makes me feel a nostalgia that brings to mind of times gone by... A shady and fishy town, with bands of wild dogs, a mixed breed of people and indigenous music, such a town is undoubtedly sexy..." (Daido Moriyama, 2004/2005). Having visited Buenos Aires twice, Moriyama captured with his lens its streets and people - its climate all that he has been longing for some time. Exhibition: July 8 - August 6, 2005 Opening hours: Tues-Sat 11 am - 7 pm Taka Ishii Gallery 1-31-6-1F, Shinkawa, Chuo-ku J-Tokyo #104-0033 Telephone +81(0)3 5542 3615 Fax +81(0)3 3552 3363 Email tig@takaishiigallery.com www.takaishiigallery.com |
