A Message from the Owner
Thanks to your continued support, Bruce Osborn’s photography exhibition has now reached Volume 9.
This exhibition presents thirteen portrait photographs selected from the many images Bruce has created since arriving in Japan in 1980.
After coming to Japan from Los Angeles in 1980, Bruce photographed people from every walk of life, capturing the faces of a generation and the spirit of each era.
The Once Upon a Time series began with photographs Bruce made in his hometown of Los Angeles. Since then, each exhibition has introduced works from different periods of his career, including many photographs that had never been exhibited before.
We hope that each photograph allows you to glimpse not only the life of its subject, but also the atmosphere of the time in which it was taken.
Please take your time and enjoy the exhibition.
