HK:PM. Hong Kong Night Life 1974-1989 is a stunning visual record of photographer Greg Girard’s earliest nocturnal wanderings in Hong Kong. From his first visits in the 1970s, and later, when he called the city home through the 1980s, HK:PM takes viewers through the city s neon lit streets and into tattoo parlours, dive bars and the hotel rooms of soldiers and sailors who frequented them. Other scenes depict the pre-dawn emptiness of Hong Kong s streets and alleys bathed in the colours of artificial light. With a foreword by award winning Hong Kong film maker Ann Hui, HK:PM adds a missing photographic link to the visual history of Hong Kong in the 1970s and 80s.
