One of my favorite B&W photographers. Internationally acclaimed, still little known in the West. I have two of his prints and three of his books.

Thanks for sharing Art, really stunning B&W photography.
 
Thanks for this, I met Fan Ho once, a quiet, generous man, who reveled in the art. Bryan, Mark and Danny at Modern Book [now "Themes + Projects"] did the world a great service by championing his work. A master printer, he told me his prints were "toned by God." I am fortunate enough to own a small print, which I cherish.

I met Mr. Ho a number of times. He lived fairly close to me. Literally 3 days before he passed, I asked Danny to forward an email from me asking whether I can take a 4x5 portrait of him for my new project.

Sigh....
