Alexander Gronsky
Gronsky is the winner of the 2010 Foam Paul Huf Award. This prize is organised by Foam and awarded each year to a young, promising international photographer under 35. Part of the prize is a show at Foam. Gronsky received the prize for his photographs of the post-Soviet landscape that he took between 2007 and 2010. The presentation features work from the series Less Than One and The Edge.

Less Than One and The Edge
Less than One is about regions in Russia's vast hinterland where the average population density is less than one per square kilometre. The series looks at the evidence of human habitation in this oppressive, monotone Russian landscape. For The Edge, Gronsky looked closer to home. Here he examines the outskirts of Moscow. And while he explores the city's periphery, Gronsky also tests the boundaries of photography. All the photos were taken during the long winter months and are dominated to a large extent by the whiteness of the snow, giving them an abstract, graphic appearance.

Foam Editions is proud to be able offer the photographs from his exhibition.

Prices and availability vary, so we happily invite you to our Foam Editions print sales room in the museum to have a look.
