He Fan passed away! He has played Tang Monk, directed beautiful and erotic films, and is also a generation of photography masters

On June 19, He Fan, a "generation grandmaster" with multiple identities as a photographer, director and actor, died in California at the age of 84.

He Fan is a filmmaker who joined Shaw in 1961 and first served as a field reporter and later as an actor. In 1965, he played tang monk in "Journey to the West", which was well received, and later starred in the sequels of the film, "Princess of iron fans", "Pansi Cave" and "Daughter Country".

In 1969, Ho left Shaw. In 1972, he became a director and made his first work, "Blood Love". Since then, he has directed a series of aesthetic erotic films and literary films, including more than 20 films such as "Spring in Denmark", "Heart Lock", "Night Passion", "Three Degrees of Temptation" and so on.

In his old age, He Fan left Hong Kong for the United States and lived a life of seclusion.

And he has a more important identity - an internationally renowned photographer.

He Fan was born in Shanghai in August 1937. From the time he got his first camera at the age of 13, he took pictures one after another, connecting his elegant and delicate side.

He broke with the traditional style of conformism with a new style of photography, and from 1958 to 1965, he won the title of "World Photography Top Ten" organized by the Photographic Society of America for eight consecutive years. In the 1950s and 1970s, he won 267 consecutive awards in international photography competitions.

Different from the unscrupulous sound and color dogs and horses in the film world, his photographic works, even the name is evocative, such as "Time Flies", "The Dead", "Mutation", "The Joy of Life", "Magical Reality" and so on.

His most widely circulated work is Near the Shadows (1954), in which a woman in a cheongsam stands at the intersection of light and shade on a wall, staring down as if time and space were also condensed. Such an old Hong Kong style abounds in his works.
