The Left Shore exhibition brings together filmmaker Johan Renck and photographer Anders Petersen. The exhibition centres around a still image film by Renck that is based on Petersen’s black-and-white documentary photographs. The film is accompanied by newly composed music. The exhibition also includes a suite of original photographs by Anders Petersen, which were part of his series on Swedish prisons and inpatient mental health institutions.

Johan Renck has been working internationally as a director for many years and has received acclaim for the TV series Chernobyl and the feature film Spaceman, and for directing David Bowie’s last two music videos.

Anders Petersen has been considered one of Sweden’s leading photographers for decades. His most noteworthy projects include images of the Café Lehmitz bar in Hamburg. Petersen’s images are characterised by a documentary style and the photographer’s desire to get close to the people he portrays.
