Strömholm’s repertoire of work defies singular explanation. His figurative images are dark, yet not despaired. They are unique in their refusal to provide the public with shock value. Instead, Strömholm communicates and complies with the subjects photographs, whether they be transvestites or abandoned children. Both the subject matter and the contexts of his pictures remain inconsistent, but his unique eye becomes the unifying force behind all of his work. This stunning collection is a must for any lover of photography because these images consistently challenge and question the purpose of photography itself.
