Tom Sandberg Furniture

Norwegian, 1953-2014

Norwegian photographer Tom Sandberg (September 14, 1953 – February 5, 2014) is considered a pioneer within the field of photographic art. He was born in Narvik, Norway, and worked and lived in Oslo.

A master of light in the great photographic tradition, Sandberg worked exclusively with the medium of black-and-white photography, and continued all through his life to create his analogue artwork with its fine hues and tonalities in the darkroom.

A man who was always on the move with his camera, Tom Sandberg explored the surface and depth ratio in a motif to build a both ambiguous and recognisable complex visual reality, through photography as a language of perception.

Retrieving his modest, yet majestic images within the photographic classical genres such as clouds, people on the street, the female nude, airplanes and landscapes, but also abstract subject matter, Sandberg’s remarkable poetic vision is imbued with a strong sense of presence and mystery.

Reknown also for his large-scale prints on various media such as aluminium sheets and canvas, and evocative portraits of the likes of John Cage and Krzysztof Penderecki, Sandberg’s images have the capacity to render an experience of seeing the world anew.

In the early 1970s, Sandberg studied photography at Trent Polytechnic, Nottingham, England, where Thomas Joshua Cooper, Paul Hill and Minor White where among his teachers. His early work was one of the first acquisitions of photography by The National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design, Oslo, and he paved the way for photography within the art-world in Norway.

Sandberg’s international recognition had its peak with the solo exhibition at MoMa PS1, New York, in 2007. His work is found in a number of museums as well as public and private collections, such as the Moderna Museet, Stockholm, the The Astrup Fearnley Museum of Modern Art, Oslo, and Bibliothèque Nationale, Paris.
