Greg Girard : HK:PM Hong Kong Night Life 1974-1989
"HK:PM, Hong Kong Night Life 1974-1989" looks at the city I first discovered as a young photographer and made my home for fifteen years. During my time in Hong Kong, especially through the 1970s and 1980s, I rarely saw photographs that showed the Hong Kong that I knew and loved. Especially the less glamorous parts of the city at night. The only visual references that came close were mostly found in Hong Kong gangster films of the period. So I tried to make pictures of what the city looked and felt like to me: in the streets, in the bars and clubs, wandering the alleys between buildings and finding my way onto rooftops. Unseen for 30 years, I am thrilled they are finally available in this new book about the city that gave me my start as a working photographer.
