HISAJI HARA AND CAI MENG: ON THE SHARED LIFE OF PHOTOGRAPHY AND PAINTING 


Japanese artist Hisaji Hara and Chinese scholar Cai Meng explored the complex relationship between photography and painting and the possibility that these two mediums may not be as distant from one another as is so often assumed. Hara also presented a discussion on the techniques and inspiration for his own series based on paintings by Balthus.
