Jean-Michel Voge
Geisha, Tokyo, Japan Contemporary Portrait Photograph on Handmade Japanese Paper

2009

About the Item

Geisha, Tokyo, 2009 by Jean-Michel (JM) Voge is a contemporary black-and-white photograph 23.5" x 16.5" printed by the artist on handmade Awagami Japanese paper. The archival pigment print is signed, titled, dated on verso (back of print). Edition: 1/5. The photograph is from the “Tokyo” series JM made in 2009 while visiting Japan. Capturing a geisha with a guarded smile showing off her flower-patterned kimono while holding an ordinary shopping bag in her other hand, JM reveals a very endearing Japanese figure. For JM’s portrait the photographer chose a backdrop of sake barrels with Japanese hieroglyphs written on them, against which setting the geisha stands out in her traditional garb. Provenance: JM Voge Archive *** Artist’s Bio: Jean-Michel (JM) Voge (b. 1949) is a fine art photographer, formerly editorial freelancer for magazines, such as Madame Figaro (1982-2010), Le Figaro Magazine, Point of View, Marie France, Town and Country, European Travel and LIFE, Fortune Magazine, and AD Spain. The French photographer published a critically-acclaimed monograph on portraits of Europeans, "Figures of Europe," which include portraits of influential Europeans through 1990. Among JM's personal projects, he photographed the Surma tribe in the Omo Valley in Ethiopia, Africa and the Sumo in Tokyo. JM travels for much of his material including extended trips to Greenland. *** Available exclusively at 99Prints NYC, an online art marketplace for today’s collector of contemporary art, works on paper, original and limited edition photography.
