Hiroshi Sugimoto 'Time Machine' exhibition at the Hayward Gallery
On Saturday we were fortunate to visit the Hayward Gallery at the South Bank in London to see the retrospective exhibition of the work of Japanese photographer Sugimoto. The pictures were all printed very big and they were stunning. And I mean really stunning. We had already learnt what an amazing exhibition it was going to be by the cloakroom attendant in the Hayward who rhapsodised about it and said it was the best photographic exhibition the gallery had put on for years. I liked best the theatre and the sea pictures, and least the waxwork portraits interesting as the thought behind them was. The space at the Hayward was theatrical in itself and I could not resist the odd photo.
