Me And My Family - Masashi Asada's Asada-Ke

Masashi Asada as most of young photographers uses his family as first subject, but here there's none of those intimate snaps we've been seeing over and over, instead Asada stages himself, his brother and his parents in different situations, creating cinematic scenes of Japanese everyday life. Asada's work is perfectly executed, with this Japanese touch for perfection but it doesn't lack the necessary step back from his own world tinted with slight humor.
Masashi Asada exhibits a selection of his works in Paris, curated by Sylvia Schilde, till the 18th of June, at the photographic space of the Hotel De Sauroy, an exquisite Parisian private hotel in the heart of the marais, 58 rue Charlot. If you haven't seen it yet, run now...

Clients & Artists have included: Telegraph, Wire, Dazed & Confused, Cat Stevens, Fred Perry, Wallpaper*, Kathryn Ferguson, Alexander Tucker, Sunday Times, Another, Lawrence Llewelyn Bowen, Gum Takes Tooth, Zoo, Sanna Charles, Donald Christie, NME, Observer music monthly, One Little Indian, Hotch Potch, Duke Garwood, Araar and many more....
MKII is hosting a music based photo show on the 28th May 2010. The Show entitled ‘The Sound not the Star’ will showcase photography of bands, musicians, fans or their musical community without ever showing the face of the artist. The photographs should interpret or suggest the identity, sound, style or universe of the artist rather than display a ‘pretty face’. Furthermore, for the opening the pictures will be grouped in sections through out the space and accompanied by a different audio set up playing a selection of music or songs to match the artists or scenes depicted in the images.
Submissions are accepted from now and emphasis is on lesser, well presented pieces (framed, mounted…) that follow the brief of creatively interpreted music photography. The show will have an opening reception on the 28th May and will be up for a month after which we are hosting an illustration show.
