ABOUT THE ASSOCIATION

Tuija Lindström (1950–2017) was born in Kotka, Finland and lived most of her life in Stockholm. She graduated from Konstfack, University of Arts, Crafts & Design in 1984 and was appointed professor in photography at the University of Gothenburg, Academy of Film and Photography, as the first woman in the position, where she came to teach until 2002. Her photographs have been exhibited internationally since the 1980s and are represented in collections including Moderna Museet, Stockholm, the Finnish Musuem of Photography, Helsinki, Kiasma Museum of Contemporary Art, Helsinki and Houston Art Museum, USA.

In the end of her life Tuija Lindström asked some of her many dear friends to care for her artistic legacy. This is now happening through the association consisting of the members Torbjörn Frisö, Magnus Bärtås, Daniel Andersson, Mia Bengtsson Plynning and Björn Larsson – with associated members Laura Caudwell Lindström and Simon Halonen.

We feel a great humility for the task of preserving Tuija’s artistic memory and deed. All contributions to the work is welcome. Collected money will be used for the archive of Tuija’s work and create conditions for preserving her memory.
