The Japanese photographer Masahisa Fukase had just finished his latest series in the early 90s when he fell down the stairs of a bar in Tokyo. The accident sent Masahisa into a coma that lasts until his death in 2012 and the tragedy lead to a somewhat stalled reputation in the art world. His series, ‘Hibi’, was shown once back then, and will be on reshown to the world at this week’s fair.
Twelve works from “Hibi” will be at the Michael Hoppen Gallery booth (number 124).
