“IN BED ON SUNDAY MORNING”-stunning!

In 1993, Gallery 8 launched Jan Baross’ unique and intriguing photographic show that captures a broad range of couples and families between the sheets. These surprising and revealing portraits explore the intimate habitats of the subjects who are portrayed where they feel the safest. 

“Baross and her camera were allowed into the inner sanctums of people’s bedrooms on Sunday morning for an intimate look. How the subjects choose to portray themselves, clothed or naked, is revealing on many levels.

A number of those included here have passed on. As a result, this book becomes an historical document, portraits of the many lives that have contributed and enriched this experiment.”

“Old Hong Kong” TEXT AND PHOTOS BY JAN BAROSS

“At the beginning of Mao Zedong’s Cultural Revolution, Baross traveled to Hong Kong with her father who was teaching orthopedics at the local hospital. She borrowed her father’s camera and documented the exotic and explosive world of 1966 China. This book is a brilliant visual, historical and cultural artifact of Hong Kong’s past.”
