Amador Gallery is pleased to announce "The Joy of Portraits", the second gallery exhibition of iconic Japanese photographer Keizo Kitajima. In 1976, Kitajima made his impressive debut with photographs capturing Koza in Okinawa, a town near the US military base, in the period just after the end of the Vietnam War. Subsequenty, he expanded his purview to include Tokyo, New York and Eastern Europe. While the photographs he made during those periods strikes us with their dazzling quality, Kitajima drastically changed his method of photographing after he visited the Soviet Union in 1991, as that nation was on the verge of collapsing. The exhibition will include work spanning the period 1976-1991, including works from each of these series.
