Annie Leibovitz in Hong Kong

著名美國攝影師Annie Leibovitz,數年前在這裡都寫過她的(06/07),這回有機會在港看到她的作品。

不過展品不多,最想見到的經典如John Lennon和Yoko Ono又或Vanity Fair那些拉頁作品都看不到。

Richard Nixon離開白宮,1974。
Louis Armstrong, 1971。
Hillary Rodham Clinton。
Mikhail Baryshnikov(白夜逃亡著名芭蕾舞蹈員及男星)這幀當然也非常熟識。
展覽至本月17日。

Gallery位於荷李活道,離行人天橋不遠。

I've been this exhibition too. This gallery has attracted numbers of famous photographers. But the venue is really too small and somehow too commercialized for me.

白行:yes, small venue, like other galleries in the same area.

Nay I'm not.
But would you mind telling me what makes you think I remotely sound like one?

mad dog said...

or u r working for the Gap maybe? :) just becos I got comments from time to time which are actually ads instead of real readers :)

Do my messages look like bot messages which are non-interactive in nature? :) And if you initially thought I was ad, how come you would talk to me? No offense just curious.

Seems like you have a one-track of mind in believing I'm from a GAP-related party lol. :D

I was actually trying to improve my swindling skills by asking you how I can coax people into thinking I can give them GAP coupons lol.

By the way am I right to think that you don't think many people in Hong Kong know Leibovitz?

anon: well i usually think twice on comments from "anonymous", why not using a name, or any pseudonym? nowadays companies have different tactics in making use of blogs to boost sales, though my blog is not that popular when comparing to others, u know some bloggers got a lot of free skin care/cosmetic samples, even free vacations and so on... they are really good friends of these companies/PRs. well, i havent done research on what ppl know or not know of annie leibovitz. i just wanted to share my exp and photos, that's it.

Now I understand why you said my messages looked like ads. Thanks for providing a different perspective. :) Not that I've never heard of these martketing strategies (like those Clinique parties), but as a man I didn't start thinking from those skincare/cosmetic products.

By the way how does the gallery make money from the exhibition? Does it sell pictures and subsequently send the royalty to Annie Leibovitz?
