About this work

Photographer: Hiroshi Sugimoto is a contemporary Japanese photographer whose esoteric practice explores memory and time. Using the intrinsic quality of long exposure photography, the artist provides insight into how the medium can both obscure and alter reality. Influenced by Dadaist and Surrealist theory, Sugimoto Seascapes, Dioramas, and Theaters craft mysterious scenes from vernacular subject matter..

Edition: From the rare edition of 400, signed and numbered on the justification page by Sugimoto (copy of the justification page is mounted to the back of the mat)

Published in an edition of 400 signed and numbered copies, Snow White is a unique collector's edition portfolio containing 75 artworks by Hiroshi Sugimoto (born 1948). All of the photographs in Snow White are from his Theaters series and include many of his well-known photographs of classic movie palaces and drive-ins, along with new photographs of Italian opera houses and abandoned theaters. Sugimoto began the Theaters series four decades ago. To make these images, he opens the shutter inside the dark theater (or in the case of the drive-ins, outside at night) for the duration of the movie. The running movie is the only source of light bringing out the architectural details of these spaces. The Disney movie Snow White was running when Sugimoto photographed "Palace Theater, Gary (2015)", one of the abandoned theaters that are reproduced here.

In this portfolio, Sugimoto reveals for the first time the movies that were screened when he took these photographs and the exposure time of each photograph. The black-and-white photographs are hand-tipped onto the paper. Each copy contains a numbered colophon signed by Sugimoto.
