Michael Kenna – Landscapes of South Korea GALERIE ROUSSET

A leading figure in contemporary photography, Michael Kenna offers a sensitive and harmonious interpretation of the Korean landscape, rooted in restraint, patience, and the precision of observation. His photographs explore territories at the threshold of the visible—barely discernible horizons, solitary trees, understated architecture, mist, and diffused light—where physical landscapes meet the realms of imagination and even the supernatural. This approach resonates particularly strongly in South Korea, where the relationship between nature, spirituality, and silence is deeply embedded in the culture.

Through this exhibition, Galerie Rousset invites visitors to appreciate black-and-white photography as an art form while, more broadly, engaging in a dialogue between humanity and nature.
