Offering: Boris Mikhailov. The Hasselblad Award 2000. Götenberg, Sweden: The Hasselblad Center, 2000. Fine in VG DJ. The DJ has some creasing / shelfwear along the top and bottom edge. In 2000, Boris Mikhailov was awarded the prestigious Hasselblad Award, one of the highest honors in photography, joining the ranks of Henri Cartier-Bresson, Robert Frank, and Cindy Sherman. Published on the occasion of the award and exhibition at the Hasselblad Center in Gothenburg, this catalog showcases Mikhailov s powerful black-and-white series Dance. His images capture the social fabric of post-Soviet life, documenting both ordinary people and the shifting realities of a society in transformation. Boris Mikhailov (b. 1938) is widely regarded as one of the most important contemporary photographers to emerge from Eastern Europe. Working across documentary, conceptual, and staged photography, he has consistently blurred the boundaries between the personal and political. His raw, unflinching eye has brought him recognition in major museums worldwide, and his Hasselblad Award further cemented his place in the canon of twentieth-century and contemporary photography. A key volume for collectors of Mikhailov and an essential addition to any serious library of international photography.
