Best known for his long creative partnership with Hou Hsiao-hsien, which has produced 10 features all remarkable for their graceful camera movement and a seductive, lustrous glow that imbues both scenes of quotidian contemporary life and opulent period pieces, Taiwanese-born Mark Lee Ping-bing has long been established as one of the most formidable cinematographers in not only east Asia but the world, sought out by a who’s who of filmmakers that includes Wong Kar-wai, Tran Anh Hung, Kore-eda Hirokazu, Ann Hui, Wang Tong, and more.
