Fotografiska spotlights masculinity and women photographers in major autumn exhibitions

The male norm - and more than 100 years of women’s photography. This is the focus of two major exhibitions at Fotografiska in Stockholm this autumn.

The large group exhibition "Harder better faster stronger", which opens on October 3, depicts masculinity and explores what it means to be a man.

On October 23rd, it's time for Diana Markosian's exhibition "Father", where she, using the camera as a tool, reunites with her father as an adult.

"Women Behind the Camera, 1848–1968," a collaboration with the Hasselblad Foundation, chronicles 120 years of women photographers. Often, it deals with work that has been "erased and forgotten." (5/12)

"What unites this autumn's exhibitions is the desire to highlight the people, experiences and stories that have ended up on the margins even though they say something crucial about our time," says Jenny Kaiser, CEO of Fotografiska, in a press release.
