Se Gallery is exhibiting its collected photos by famous photographers and artists, such as Elliott Erwitt, Xiao Quan, Hai Bo and Jamie McCartney, at an exhibition to mark the gallery’s seventh anniversary.

Erwitt is a French-born American advertising and documentary photographer known for his black-and-white candid photos of ironic and absurd situations within everyday settings. He has been a member of Magnum Photos since 1953.

McCartney is an artist working in many disciplines. Often using the body as inspiration, he works with both traditional and novel materials and processes. He explores the human condition and themes of religion, sexuality and death.

Xiao rose to prominence in the late 1980s, capturing China’s emerging writers, directors and artists in their early days, including such leading figures as director Zhang Yimou, writer Yu Hua and dancer Yang Liping.

Xiao began recording the youthful faces of a generation of intellectuals in the 1980s and the 1990s. His photos capture China’s artistic experimentation when the country opened to the outside world. His precise grasp of characters and close contact with that generation have imbued his works with social and historical significance. With warmth and persistence, Xiao witnessed the growth of that generation, reflected their pain and joy, hesitation and persistence, and above all, projected his eternal care for life.
