Join photographer Tony Maniaty for a talk about his newest exhibition that explores the history of Japanese photography.
Tony Maniaty is joined in-conversation by art curator Kathryn Hunyor for a fascinating journey through Japanese photography, from its 19th century beginnings to the post-war boom in major talents, to today’s cutting-edge and often controversial image-makers.
The event will also look at Tony's works from his newest exhibition, PAPER MOON: Images of Japan, featuring a wide range of Japanese images. The exhibition will have its open day on Saturday 15 November at The Kirribilli Neighbourhood Centre. See details here.
