Anders Petersen (born 3 May 1944 in Solna, Sweden) is a Swedish photographer, who lives and works in Stockholm, Sweden. ==Biography== Petersen is noted for his intimate and personal documentary-style black-and-white photographs. He studied photography under Christer Strömholm in Sweden, 1966-1967. For three years beginning in 1967 he photographed the late-night regulars (prostitutes, transvestites, drunks, lovers and drug addicts) in Café Lehmitz, a bar in Hamburg, Germany. The resulting photobook was first published in 1978 by Schirmer/Mosel in Germany. ''Café Lehmitz'' has since become regarded as a seminal book in the history of European photography. One of the photographs from this series was used as the cover art for Tom Waits' album ''Rain Dogs''.〔http://www.tomwaits.com/news/article/144/Rain_Dogs_Revisited/〕 Petersen's first book ''Gröna Lund'' (Green Grove), which was published in 1973, is set in the amusement park of Gröna Lund situated on an island. In 1970 Petersen co-founded SAFTRA, the Stockholm group of photographers, with Kenneth Gustavsson. At the same time, he taught at Christer Strömholm's school. He has been director of the Göteborg School of Photography and Film. He began to photograph for magazines, and continued his personal photo diary work, which continues to this day. He has photographed for extensive periods of time in prisons, mental asylums, and elderly care homes. Petersen has published more than 20 books, mostly in Sweden, and has had solo and group exhibitions throughout Europe and Asia. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Anders Petersen (photographer)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
