A Look Inside “Tom Sandberg: Photographs”

Join Aperture and Scandinavia House for an evening of conversation between writer and curator Bob Nickas, and editor of Aperture magazine, Michael Famighetti.

Working in a signature modulating gray scale, the late Norwegian photographer Tom Sandberg spent decades rendering the world according to an exacting vision, training his eye on the shapes and forms of the everyday—dark abstractions of asphalt and sea, the hard edges of an automobile, an ominously curved tunnel, an anonymous figure casting a shadow—to plumb the nature of photographic seeing.
