Sugimoto review on PORT

There's a long and comprehensive review of the Hiroshi Sugimoto retrospective currently on view at the De Young Museum.

It is difficult to explain why Sugimoto's work is different than most photographers. I think the difference is that he leaves more space for the viewer. One of the things that I struck me when I was walking through the show at the De Young was that when I look at Sugimoto's wide range of work, he is somehow always reaching for the eternal in an inherently temporal medium.
