Background information
"Christer STRÖMHOLM, considered the father of contemporary photography in Sweden, portrays people in an intimate and exuberant way, whether on the street or in the hotel rooms where they live. For the author, it is a work about the freedom of each individual to choose their own life and identity, which over time has become a series of moving reminders of the weaknesses and strengths of the human condition.Content
The black and white images in the small photographic volume 'Les Nuits de Place Blanche' by Christer STRÖMHOLM radiate both vulnerability and beauty and represent what working with photography means to the prominent Swedish photographer: the opportunity to deal with the big questions of life such as love, death and human loneliness."
