Manga Dreams by Anderson & Low









Went to see the exhibition 'Manga Dreams' at the Hamiltons Gallery in Mayfair a couple of nights ago. The show features a series of Manga-style portraits by the much-lauded photographic duo Jonathan Anderson and Edwin Low, whose previous work includes studies of honed Olympic athletes and graceful circus artistes. I really like the the way the images fuse photography with traditional Japanese comic-book art, something that works well with the larger scale tableaux. The shots I've posted here really don't do the exhibition justice - try and get along to see it before it closes on March 5th.
