Japanese photography on display at the GalleryOn tour from the National Gallery of Victoria, ‘Shashin: Nineteenth century Japanese studio photography’ is one of the current special exhibitions at Latrobe Regional Gallery. By Latrobe City Council - 15th July 2005 - Back to News Gallery Director, Louise Tegart, said that in the mid nineteenth century a distinctive style of photography developed in Japan.
"The images in ‘Shashin’ are delicately handcoloured photographs most often posed in the studio. ‘Shashin’ (the Japanese word for photograph) means a ‘copy of truth’. It is an interesting concept to conjure with when looking at the posed studio photographs that proliferated from the 1860s to 1900s in Japan," Ms Tegart explained.
"Western and Japanese photographers followed the conventions and subject matter of the famed ukiyo-e woodblock prints, pictures of the floating world, to show courtesans, actors and scenes of entertainment. The resulting photographs are a kind of ‘truth’ but it is a complex and often creative hybrid of reality that drew on Western expectations and experience as much as aspects of Japanese society," Ms Tegart said.
Ms Tegart added that three ukiyo-e woodblock prints also accompany the 46 photographs within the exhibition.
"Focusing on the themes; ‘Pictures of Beautiful Women’, ‘Samurai, Sumo and Priests’ and ‘Customs and Costumes’, ‘Shashin’ is the first exhibition in Australia to explore this remarkable period in photography.
‘Shashin: Nineteenth century Japanese studio photography’ continues until Sunday 28 August 2005.
Latrobe Regional Gallery is located at 138 Commercial Road, Morwell, and is open Monday to Friday 10am-5pm, and on weekends 11am–4pm. The gallery is closed on Public Holidays. For further information about exhibitions at the gallery, please telephone 5128 5700. Admission is free.
