Christer Strömholm: Discovering the Swedish Photographer

Season 10, Episode 15,   Feb 29, 04:00 AM

Christer Strömholm was born 1918. As a youth, he joined the Nordic Nazi Youth where he carried the Swastika. As an adult his political attitude changed, and he gravitated towards the arts, experimental photography and documenting people on the margins of society.

We popped along to see his pictures of French graffiti, atmospheric snow and a post-Civil War Spain.
