"A single image doesn't tell you much, but seen as a collection, a pattern emerges to form a meaningful narrative."—Michael Wolf

Aperture is pleased to offer this very special limited-edition photograph from one of Michael Wolf's previous series 100 x 100 which he has just published in book form: Michael Wolf: Hong Kong Inside Outside ( 2009 Co-published by Asia One and Peperoni Books)

For more than 14 years the artist has been living and working in Hong Kong. Focusing his camera on specific views and elements, Wolf has explored high density living in one of the most crowded cities on the globe. 100 x 100 , and specifically Nine Rooms, explores the "inside" of those who dwell within that density.

Michael Wolf (born in Munich, 1954) grew up in the United States, and studied at UC Berkeley and with Otto Steinert at the University of Essen in Germany. Two previous books—Sitting in China (2002) and Hong Kong, Front Door/Back Door (2005)—feature his much acclaimed photographs of China. Wolf lives and works in Hong Kong and Paris.
