The photo exhibition 'AMERIKA' by Stian Foss and Johannes Worsøe Berg will be on display at the Trygve Lie Gallery through August. Opening reception: Thursday, June 7 at 6pm.
Stian Foss and Johannes Worsøe Berg are two New York based Norwegian photographers.
Foss primarily works with fashion and art photography, while Berg is a photo journalist.
America is, in addition to a geographical area, a mythical destination. For hundreds of years it is has been a place for dreamers, winners and losers. Foss and Berg are making a portrait of both urban and rural landscapes, people and objects. In the images we find twosomeness, tradition and moments so ordinary that most people never would notice them.
When it comes to style and color, the photographers' expressions are very different from each other. The link is that they are both on the inside, but still managing to view their surroundings from the outside.
The exhibition will be on show through August.
