Hiroshi Sugimoto: Time Machine at the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia

Over the past 50 years, acclaimed Japanese photographer, architect and artistic producer Hiroshi Sugimoto has produced some of the most recognisable images in contemporary art.

This August the Museum of Contemporary Art Australia unveils the largest exhibition of Sugimoto’s work to date. It’s his first major retrospective in the southern hemisphere – and the MCA in Sydney is the only venue in Australia where you can see it.

Titled Hiroshi Sugimoto: Time Machine, the show explores the relationship between time, memory and perception, and how Sugimoto’s photography – sometimes abstract, sometimes impressionistic – blurs the lines between all three. More than 100 pieces will be on display, from large-scale photographs to sculptural works. All his major photographic series will be represented, including his examination of theatres, waxworks, architecture, seascapes, dioramas and even sculptures derived from mathematical forms.
