This month we will be heading to Stills for their exhibition Ishiuchi Miyako, where we will be joined by Stills director Ben Harman.
Coinciding with the Edinburgh Art Festival, Stills presents a solo exhibition by Ishiuchi Miyako – an influential post-war Japanese photographer. It is the first time her work has been exhibited in Scotland. The show consists of a selection of work from some of her most celebrated series including, Mother’s, the series with which she represented Japan at the Venice Biennale in 2005; work documenting the belongings of victims of the atomic bomb which are kept at the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum; and photographs from the series Frida, made at The Frida Kahlo Museum in Mexico City where Miyako photographed Kahlo’s garments such as corsets, cosmetics and shoes.
