An introduction to the renowned Swedish photographer Anders Petersen, featuring 63 of his intimate and personal documentary-style black-and-white photographs. Anders Petersen (b. 1944) is perhaps best known for his book Café Lehmitz, which was first published in 1978 and is now recognized as one of the classics of post-war European photography.
In it, he captured a time and place now long gone – a bar on Hamburg’s Reeperbahn teeming with prostitutes, dropouts and the fringe elements that went to make up a warm-hearted family of non-conformists with whom he identified and felt totally at home. In 1970, he co-founded SAFTRA, the Stockholm group of photographers, and has since gone on taking photographs in his own unique fashion, following the rhythms of his own life.
This title in Thames & Hudson's renowned Photofile series features 63 of Petersen's most renowned images. The Photofile Series Photofile brings together the best work of the world’s greatest photographers in an attractive, accessible, pocket-sized format. Handsome and collectable, the books are printed to the highest standards.
Each one contains over sixty full-page reproductions printed in superb duotone, together with a critical introduction and a full bibliography.
