More about Dawid (Björn Dawidsson)

Dawid is one of Sweden’s most notorious photographers, and was a pioneer in conceptual photography. He had his breakthrough in 1983 with the exhibition “Rost” at the Fotografiska Museum. Dawid pushes the boundaries to what is considered photography, At first glance, his images possess strong aesthetic values, but upon closer inspection, the depicted objects, which appear in all their everyday ordinariness, seem to open up anew. The images undergo a kind of metamorphosis and acquire meanings beyond the merely denoted.
