The exhibition is based on the Moderna Museet collection, presenting more than 300 pictures by 29 photographers, including Kenneth Gustavsson, Walter Hirsch, Eva Klasson, Tuija Lindström and Anders Petersen. The younger generation is represented with projects by Martin Bogren, Anna Clarén and JH Engström, all of whom have pursued the subjective movement in various ways and on different terms. The exhibition was shown at Moderna Museet Malmö in spring 2014 and will appear in a new, extended version at Moderna Museet in Stockholm.
– It is wonderful that the Moderna Museet collection boasts such a vital part of modern Swedish photo history. Martin Bogren, Anna Clarén and JH Engström are three contemporary photographers who demonstrate how strong and interesting the Nordic photography scene is right now, says Anna Tellgren, curator.
