This is so rad for so many reasons!

Format Perspective’s very own Nils Svensson is getting set to have his first solo show in the Landskrona Museum on May 27th! This is set to be a gem of an exhibition as Nils has carefully sifted through a body of work that spans 15 years to come up with the selection for the show at this prestigious venue. Here’s some more details on the exhibition:

Deconstruction is a collection of work from Malmö photographer Nils Svensson that documents the subversive skateboard scene which he has been embedded in since 1996. The body of work for this exhibition spans fifteen years that candidly document the routes of Malmös renowned DIY – Do It Yourself skate scene and the characters and social sculptures that have aged and evolved in response to their surroundings and the passion of this unique group of people.

The exhibition takes place in Landskrona, a city 30 minutes north of Malmö, at Landskrona Museum and opens up on Sunday the 27th of May at 13.00 – 16.00. The exhibition will be open all summer until the 2nd of September. Opening times are Tuesday – Sunday 12 – 17 and Thursdays 12 – 20.

Here’s a nice little video from Leica about street photographer Joel Meyerowitz where he talks about his approach to photography, why he started doing it and what he tries to communicate with it, nice to see such lovely images coming from a simple 35mm camera! Like he says its about the idea!

I just got a nice report from Christoph Zingelmann of the Hamburg Skate and Surf Film Festival. about their screening last night.

“Hey Phil,

We had a great success last night.
The people loved it!
We are very happy and stoked about your movie!
Very nice :) Thank you so much for giving us the opportunity to show your sick movie!
Here I have some pictures for you of the premier!
Many greetings.”

Seems like it was a full house, nice one Christoph, stoked!
