Yoshihiko Ueda: From the Hip

Yoshihiko Ueda: From the Hip

About the Exhibition

From the outset of his career, Yoshihiko Ueda (1957–) has distinguished himself across a broad spectrum of photography, from celebrity portraits and advertising to nature and urban landscapes. His ability to capture fleeting moments with both technical mastery and a refined sensibility has earned him national and international acclaim. Constantly evolving with each era, his work embodies a timeless pursuit of beauty. This exhibition—the first solo presentation of his work at a public art museum in 20 years—offers a comprehensive retrospective of his 40-year career. Featuring approximately 500 works, it includes his most celebrated images, unpublished early pieces, and his latest creations, all developed and printed by the artist himself.
