The aunt’s world was the home and the family, and thus she has traditionally often been both made invisible and mocked. But over time, the aunt has come to get her revenge. Today we want to bring out our inner aunt and her ideal has become something aspirational.
During the spring of 2023, the Arbetets museum will show the exhibition Tanter!by the late photographer Bernt-Ola Falck. A series of never-before-seen photos, which with both humor and warmth portray a whole bouquet of wonderful aunts.
ABOUT THE PHOTOGRAPHER
Bernt-Ola Falck (1962–2006) worked for many years as a press photographer, e.g. for Östgöta-Correspondent in Linköping, where he later also became image manager. In addition to photojournalism, he did a number of his own projects and produced several photo books and exhibitions.
