More information
For more than four decades, Denise Grünstein was one of our most internationally renowned photographers. Born in Helsinki, she was active in Sweden throughout her life. In the 1980s, Grünstein became known for her portraits of cultural figures for magazines such as Elle and Månadsjournalen. She started styling her subjects to bring out other sides of the celebrities, as a kind of artistic dimension to the classic commissioned portrait. Her skill earned her so many commissions that she eventually grew tired of faces and decided to take a different photographic route. Her work often shows landscapes with women in different positions and situations, often hidden or facing away from the camera. It is the composition that comes first for Grünstein, to test an idea and see if it holds up aesthetically, photography is really something she does to immortalize the composition.
