Florentine

Helena Blomqvist's new show at Lars Bohman Gallery in Stockholm takes its name from its subject, Florentine Stein. Once a prima ballerina, now a tiny old woman, Florentine is the central figure in Blomqvist's series of lush, dramatically lit photographs that twist the idea of documentary portraiture. Exhibition: Galleri Lars Bohman, Stockholm, Sweden (17 Mar 2016 - 23 Apr 2016).
