Hisaji "Balthus" Hara

                                       Photo|  Hisaji Hara

Don´t miss this show! The one exhibition not to miss in Feb./March is Japanese photographer Hisaji Hara´s show at the Michael Hoppen Gallery in London. Hara, a graphic designer and film-maker by background, has over the last five years recreated some of artist Balthus most famous paintings into photographs. Not the most unique concept, but with Haras photographs I forget about the concept .... Maybe because his photographs are so beautiful and have a kind of timeless feel ..... Interview with Hara here
