Courtesy of the artist and YUKA CONTEMPORARY copy right(c) Tim Barber Tim Barber photographs scenes and events in his daily life that capture an atmosphere, at times wistful or sharply beautiful, that etches into the mind of the viewer to leave a lasting impression. In the contemporary photography book "SHOOT" (Rizzoli, 2009), Barber is featured as one of the most important young photographers today, following in the tradition of Wolfgang Tillmans and Mark Bothwick, who transformed snapshot photography into a fine art practice. For this exhibition, Barber will bring together a collection of his works spanning his 15 year career as a photographer. For Tim, this exhibition at YUKA CONTEMPORARY will be his first solo exhibition in Japan. Tim Barber is attending the opening party on Saturday, Feb 6th.
