From 1968 onwards, Daidō Moriyama became preoccupied with Andy Warhol and his silkscreens. This was furthered by a consequential visit to New York City in 1971, where he further came into contact with Warhol’s work and milieu. This marked the genesis of a process where Moriyama played with the essence of duplication, repetition and mass production in his practice.

America’s postwar occupation of Japan and subsequent global cultural hegemony seriously inflected Moriyama’s subject matter. The artist started his freelance photographic career in 1964, the same year that Tokyo hosted the Olympics. In order to prepare for the event, old neighbourhoods were torn down and large concrete expressways and neon-lit commercial districts were erected, rapidly setting the city on a path hurtling toward hyper-capitalism and Western influence. In response, Moriyama’s work centres on the movement, immediacy, transience and frenetic energy of daily life in this evolving metropolis. Images of laundry drying, scenes through the windows of speeding cars and people walking down teeming streets heighten the impermanence of reality and the new brutal pace of life.

Daidō Moriyama: Ink is currently on show at Hamiltons Gallery.

Hamiltons is delighted to share a presentation of Daidō Moriyama’s rare and influential silkscreens on view from 15 September.

In 1971, Moriyama made a consequential visit to New York City, where he first came into contact with the work of Andy Warhol, most significantly his silkscreens. This marked the genesis of a process where Moriyama played with the essence of duplication, repetition and mass production in his practice.

The International Center of Photography will highlight the centrality of photography in the life and work of Yves Saint Lauren in a new exhibition in New York City. Saint Laurent’s enthusiastic embrace of photography transformed the way that clothes were seen, how magazine editorials were conceptualised and expanded the creative direction of commercial fashion photography.

Yves Saint Laurent and Photography features work by Andy Warhol, Irving Penn, Helmut Newton, Richard Avedon, Horst P. Horst, William Klein, Annie Leibovitz and more.

The above work is taken by Helmut Newton of Loulou de la Falaise, jewellery designer and muse and collaborator of Yves Saint Laurent since the early 1970s. de la Falaise was known for her bohemian chicness and mix and match, high-low personal style, which greatly influenced Saint Laurent’s Rive Gauche line.

The photograph by Newton sees de la Falaise dressed in YSL in the Jardin de Luxembourg. The image was published in the third edition Egoïste magazine in in 1978.

Please enquire for pricing and availability.

Yves Saint Laurent & Photography runs until the 28th of September.

Last week Andy Warhol’s portrait of Brigitte Bardot achieved a new auction record for the series of the actress, reaching $24.8 million in Sotheby’s Now & Contemporary Evening Auction in New York.

The silkscreen portrait is one of eight Warhol created of the actress, commissioned by her husband Gunter Sachs. Warhol used Richard Avedon’s iconic portrait, pictured here. The image was commissioned for the March 1959 issue of Harper’s Bazaar and is featured in our current exhibition ‘Up Close.’
