City Faces ~ Stockholm's City Museum



In the 1860s, portrait photography exploded in Stockholm. Studios opened, photo albums became fashionable, and everyone wanted to be immortalized: maids, wholesalers, factory workers, and sailors. The City Museum's collection preserves 400,000 of these faces. But who were they?

In an interdisciplinary project, historical photographs have been linked with biographical data about Stockholm residents from 1860—1930. Using digital facial recognition, previously unknown faces have been examined and identified.

Now you can meet some of these individuals in an exhibition about photography, memory, power, and mystery.

And dont miss to try Bosco - The Magical Machine.

The exhibition is the result of the project "City Faces", funded by the Swedish Research Council.

Opening

March 11. At Stockholm's City Museum. Free admission

Children in the City, Photographs by Kary H. Lasch



 

Kary H. Lasch is known as a fashion and magazine photographer. Now, we showcase a different side of him. Here, children and the city take center stage. The images capture Stockholm from the early 1950s to the late 1960s. We follow Lasch on his walks, where he uses his Hasselblad camera to capture spontaneous moments of everyday life in his uniquely playful and curious way.

Kary H. Lasch. Born in Prague in 1914, Lasch made Stockholm the base for his international career. His work featured some of the biggest names in art and entertainment, including Picasso, Dalí, and Bardot, gracing magazine covers worldwide. At his passing in 1993, he left behind a legacy of nearly 500,000 photographs.

This exhibition is presented in collaboration with The Kary H. Lasch Archive and Collection, which has been digitizing and organizing this vast collection since 2019.

Visit the exhibition at Stockholm City Museum.

When: May 7—November 2, 2025
