The movement of the times, the glory and sorrow of the city have all left their irreplaceable traces in his works.
“Beyond the Gaze” is the late Macau photographer Frank Lei’s documentary photography about the city of Macau, and is also his first photographic publication since his passing.
As a photographer who is constantly creating, Frank’s mobility during daily life makes him a wanderer in different fields in Macau, accumulating chances and moments in the midst of changes and passages.
This photobook includes a number of representative works that have never been published and seen before. Divided into eight chapters with 121 works, it presents some of Macau’s uncommon cityscapes from before the handover in the 90s to the early years after the handover, and a chapter on the Hengqin project, which was the main focus of Frank’s work before his death.
時代的妄動，城市的榮哀，皆在作品中，留下難以替代的痕跡。
《另眼相看》為已故澳門攝影家李銳奮關於澳門的紀實攝影集，同時亦是他過世後的首部攝影出版。
作為一位創作不輟的攝影師，始於日常與自覺的能動性，使他彷如一名遊走於澳門不同場域的漫遊者，在變幻與流逝之中，累積了不少偶然與瞬間。
他的作品豐富多樣，卻鮮少結集出版，是次攝影集收錄了一些至今從未出版，甚具代表性的作品。共分八個部分、一百二十一幅作品，呈現了澳門自上世紀九十年代回歸前，至回歸後初期一些較不常見的城市面貌，還有一章是他生前主力策劃的橫琴計劃。
