John Nassari – 80 at 80 – Portraits of the Mandarin Oriental

To mark the 80th anniversary of OLYMPUS cameras, OLYMPUS UK and Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park, London are proud to present a major exhibition of new photographs by OLYMPUS Visionary John Nassari. A collection of images commissioned by Mandarin Oriental Hyde Park gives a glimpse inside one of London’s most celebrated 5-star hotels.

Nassari was given unprecedented access to all areas of the hotel over a period of several months in 2015. This allowed him to experience the essence of the hotel and its workings. Remaining unobtrusive whilst the hotel was operational was challenging, although using the OLYMPUS OM-D E-M5 Mark II allowed him to quietly observe and capture the staff as they went about their very diverse, busy duties.
