Born in Trondheim in 1965, Norwegian photographer Mette Tronvoll studied at Parsons School of Design in New York before friends introduced her to photographic artists of the Dasseldorf School in Germany. Mainly in color, her photographic work is in the tradition of documentary photography and characterized by her special interest in anthropology. The living conditions in Inner Mongolia, which she studied for many years, feature prominently in her work. This publication, which is the first monographic survey of the work of Mette Tronvoll, will accompany an exhibition that opens in Stavanger, Norway, in December 2009 before going on tour. sakriti opis
