Dandeli Art Center Launches Tokihiro Sato's Solo Exhibition Titled “Photo-Respiration”

The sun comes down on the snow-white moth orchids on the table through the transparent roof of Dandeli Art Center. The water drops on the petals glitter as if the sunlight breathes shallowly. Tokihiro Sato’s black-and-white photographs are bathed in subdued spotlights. The particles of light dispersed throughout the landscapes, cityscape and deserted houses in the photographs creates scenes of light that seem to breathe. Sato’s works always remind the audience that the light is the origin of life of photographs.

Dandeli Art Center has meticulously created the said ambience to match “Photo-Respiration by Tokihiro Sato”, the first photography exhibition launched in the gallery.

Tokihiro Sato is one of the most influential Japanese photographers. His photographs are housed by more than twenty art galleries and museums ground the world as well as private collectors including Bill Gates. As a professional art gallery, Dandeli Art Center launches this exhibition to honor Tokihiro Sato, an internationally renowned photographer, and his outstanding artwork, which communicates his unique interpretation of light with camera.

On September 13, more than one hundred guests attend the opening ceremony of Sato’s solo exhibition. During the private preview, Tokihiro Sato and Edward Chiu, the Art Director and curator of this exhibition, communicate with VIP guests about the inspirations and creation process of Sato’s works. Sato later gives a presentation to all audience on the art of photography.
