Hiroshi Sugimoto - Theaters (1978-93)

Artist’s statement: 

“I’m a habitual self-interlocutor. Around the time I started photographing at the Natural History Museum, one evening I had a near-hallucinatory vision. The question-and-answer session that led to this vision went something like this: 

Suppose you shoot a whole movie in a single frame? 

And the answer: You get a shining screen. 

Immediately I sprang to action, experimenting toward realizing this vision. Dressed up as a tourist, I walked into a cheap cinema in the East Village with a large-format camera. As soon as the movie started, I fixed the shutter at a wide-open aperture, and two hours later when the movie finished, I clicked the shutter closed. 

That evening, I developed the film, and the vision exploded behind my eyes.”

Angkor Wat is the largest Hindu at first, then Buddhist temple complex and the largest religious monument in the world. The temple was built by the Khmer King Suryavarman II in the early 12th century in Yasodharapura, the capital of the Khmer Empire, as his state temple and eventual mausoleum. Breaking from the Shaivism tradition of previous kings, Angkor Wat was instead dedicated to Vishnu. As the best-preserved temple at the site, it is the only one to have remained a significant religious centre since its foundation – first Hindu, then Buddhist. The temple is at the top of the high classical style of Khmer architecture. It has become a symbol of Cambodia, appearing on its national flag, and it is the country’s prime attraction for visitors.

It was the worst job I’ve ever had. I couldn’t get a job that year. And, finally, my agent calls me and he says, “I’ve got some good and some bad news. I’ve got a job for you and it shoots in Cape Town.” I said, “That’s fantastic!” […] He said, “Well, it’s a German sausage commercial.” I was young and going to be a serious actor. That was the last thing I thought I was going to be doing. (x)
