Boogie Woogie Photography & PhotogStory are pleased to present "My Hong Kong, 我城 (Part II)", a group exhibition at the Loft in Wong Chuk Hang from 15 October to 27 November 2022.

Every city has its own story to tell. More stories are yet to be told in a vibrant and bustling city like Hong Kong. Following the success of the exhibition "My Hong Kong, 我城", we are thrilled to present Part II, comprising eleven Hong Kong and international photographers' artworks about the city.

Everyone sees and feels the city from their perspective. People who have been to Hong Kong at different ages always have a reason to fall in love with the city. On display are Raymond Cauchetier and James Chung's cityscapes from the 1950s and young talents' impressions of Hong Kong.

Even though Cauchetier and Chung lived in different worlds, they had similar paths. They were both self-taught photographers and recorded Hong Kong's street scenes nearly seventy years ago. Their images reflect people's simple life at that time. Later, in the 1960s, Cauchetier became a set photographer for the French New Wave and Chung for Hong Kong films. With the passing of Jean-Luc Godard in September this year, Cauchetier's photographs brought back vivid memories of the French New Wave director, which left a critical testimony of the golden era.

Hong Kong is a charismatic city. Whether in the movies or the reality, this place always attracted and fascinated visitors. The exhibition not only presents the city's past and present but also embraces the city's diversity through the photographers' eyes. We hope the audience can recall their unique memories of the city with this exhibition.
