Theaters

Hiroshi Sugimoto (1948)

Synopsis

Hiroshi Sugimoto's "Theaters" showcases his longstanding project of photographing movie theater interiors, examining the passage of time through 130 images, 21 of which are previously unpublished. Since the late 1970s, Sugimoto has used a unique technique to photograph theaters: capturing entire films in a single frame by using long exposures. The resulting images feature luminous screens set against intricate architectural details. The collection includes classic movie palaces from the 1920s and '30s, drive-ins, and historic European venues, highlighting the cultural evolution of film spaces. Sugimoto's works are internationally recognized and exhibited in global institutions.
