To mark the 20th anniversary of Hong Kong’s return to China, Shenzhen Art Museum is exhibiting more than 200 old photos taken by Shenzhen photographers He Huangyou and Zheng Zhongjian and Hong Kong photographers Chak Wai-leung and Lau Kwun-tang.
由深圳美术馆和深圳市摄影家协会主办的“双城姿态——深港50至80年代纪实摄影展”已于6月22日在深圳美术馆开幕。此次展览邀请了四位深圳和香港的摄影师：何煌友（深圳）、郑中健（深圳）、翟伟良（香港）、刘冠腾（香港）。共展出两百多幅分别拍摄于上世纪的50至80年代的作品，记录下了我们现在已经看不到的城市逝去的风景，给后人留下了珍贵的历史图像。
Zheng Zhongjian
The photos span from the 1950s to the 1980s. Zheng’s photos reflect the lives of farmers in the 1950s when Shenzhen was Bao’an County while He’s photos mainly focus on migrant workers in the early period of reform and opening up. To reflect the changes that have taken place in Shenzhen, He often photographed the same places at different times.
Chak Wai-leung
Chak was born in Dongguan in 1942 and became a civil servant in the Hong Kong government in 1959. He was well-versed in photography and darkroom operations as a teenager. While pursuing the art of photography, he also wrote articles for newspapers and photography magazines, and practiced calligraphy and painting at the professional level.
Since the 1960s, Chak has taken a great number of photos that reflect the hardships of life in Hong Kong, recording how Hong Kong’s regular citizens led their lives and showcasing the enterprising spirit of Hong Kong.
