Provenance Yoshii Gallery, New York Private Collection, America Phillips, New York, 2 April 2015, lot 260 Acquired at the above sale by the present owner Exhibited Tokyo, Mori Art Museum; Washington D.C., Hirshhorn Museum and Sculpture Garden, Smithsonian Institution, Hiroshi Sugimoto , 17 September 2005 - 14 May 2006, pp. 32, 49, 51, 54, 57, 65, 70, 73 (another example of 5 from the portfolio exhibited and 8 examples illustrated) Kunsthalle Basel, Hiroshi Sugimoto Time Exposed , 21 January - 5 March 1995, pp. 45-46, 50 (another example of 6 from the portfolio illustrated) Artist Bio Hiroshi Sugimoto Japanese • 1948 Follow Hiroshi Sugimoto's work examines the concepts of time, space and the metaphysics of human existence through breathtakingly perfect images of theaters, mathematical forms, wax figures and seascapes. His 8 x 10 inch, large-format camera and long exposures give an almost eerie serenity to his images, treating the photograph as an ethereal time capsule and challenging its associations of the 'instant.' In his famed Seascapes, Sugimoto sublimely captures the nature of water and air, sharpening and blurring the elements together into a seamless, formless entity. This reflection of the human condition and its relationship with time follows through his exploration of historical topics and timeless beauty as he uniquely replicates the world around us.
