"Indicier" is an exhibition catalog by Swedish photographers Christel Strömholm, Anders Petersen, and Kenneth Gustafson. Published in conjunction with an exhibition held at Kulturhuset in Stockholm in 1996, it is an important publication that showcases the lineage of subjective documentary photography in Sweden. Strömholm, known for works such as "Place Blanche," is a photographer who captured people living on the fringes of society with deep empathy and tension, and she also had a significant influence on subsequent generations as an educator. Following in her footsteps, Petersen with "Café Lehmitz" and Gustafson with works that examine the loneliness of cities and individuals, each approach the presence of humanity from a different distance. Like the traces and signs suggested by the title "Indicier," this book overlaps high contrast, coarse grain, a gaze that approaches the body, and the loneliness that permeates the city. Rather than simply presenting the three photographers side by side, it is structured as a series of gazes that resonate across teacher-student relationships and generations, making it an indispensable book for understanding the history of Swedish photography.
