PRESENTATION

My name is Birger Svanteson and I live in Södertälje, near Stockholm in Sweden. My photographing is based on autodidactic studies of photographing as art, academic studies and other courses. I have been taking photos fore more than 40 years and Gotska Sandön in Baltic Sea, has been my source of inspiration. 1984 I hade my first exhibition about USA in black and white. It was shown in Södertälje, Motala, Nykvarn and Lund. In 1989 I hade my first exhibition about Gotska Sandön in black and white. “Fritt ur sand”, poetry from Gotska Sandön. The exhibition was shown in Södertälje, Visby, Vadstena and five librarys in Stockholm. In 2001 I hade my latest work from Gotska Sandön. This exhibition was shown in Visby, Nynäshamn and Stockholm.
My profession is handicraft teacher and training teacher at Stockholm University. Now I am pensioner.
