One

Ken Ohara (1942)

Synopsis

Ken Ohara's book "One" features a 1970 photography project capturing close-cropped, full-face black and white portraits of randomly selected individuals from New York streets. The striking and unsettling images present a diverse array of genders, races, and ages, yet coalesce into a unified collection. Ohara’s work exemplifies a unique approach to portraiture, emphasizing both individuality and universality within the urban landscape. The portraits highlight differences and commonalities against the backdrop of one of the world's most diverse cities, making "One" a compelling exploration of human identity and appearance.
