本地資深攝影記者余偉建將在2017年2月於中環藝穗會陳麗玲畫廊呈獻《Nine Lives》攝影展覽。
《Nine Lives》展出資深攝影記者余偉建最新著作《hong kong/china photographers nine》裡的九組精選影像，影像作品皆選自其於美聯社中的九項國際委派工作。
余氏職業生涯超過三十載，攝影足跡遍佈亞太區多個重大歷史現場。前線攝影記者為遠方讀者揭露社會真相，新聞攝影同時作為政治及社會事件的歷史文化檔案。這些影像呈現出的獨特氛圍，反照出不同國家的經濟民生變化。余氏的作品超越象徵主義，當中更具備其對事件的主觀和客觀的創作意識。
是次余偉建的最新著作 《hong kong/china photographers nine》 為本地出版社Asia One 編印的Hong Kong Photographers攝影集糸列的第九篇章。此系列展示香港多位風格迥異的攝影師作品。
You are cordially invited to “Nine Lives”, a photo exhibition by one of the most acclaimed Hong Kong-born photojournalists, Vincent Yu.
The exhibition will feature a selected body of works by Yu from his newly-published “hong kong/china photographers nine”, a photo book comprising images from nine different news assignments undertaken by Yu over the years as a news photographer work for the Associated Press.
Yu’s career in news and documentary photography has spanned over three decades during which he has covered some of the most important and historic news events across the Asia-Pacific region. If press photography serves as cultural documents of our social and political history, then Yu, like many fellow photojournalists, are revelators of truth to spectators in distant lands. The temperament communicated through Yu’s imageries provides a stark contrast to the economic transformation many of these places have undergone. Armed with objective and subjective awareness, Yu’s works extend beyond symbolism and cover illustrative aspects of this photography genre.
Yu’s latest “hong kong/china photographers nine” is the ninth-part of a photo book series published by Hong Kong-based Asia One Books that feature works of Hong Kong’s most esteemed photographers of different genres.
