Collection loan
Autograph is loaning a photograph from our collection by artist Zanele Muholi to Fotografiska Stockholm's 15 year anniversary exhibition.
Bringing together favourites from the last 15 years, this exhibition celebrates the power of photography as the most accessible and influential art form of our time through which we reflect ourselves and our world. There will be fond reunions with many of the photographers and artists that Fotografiska's visitors have seen over the years.
