About the Artist
Astrid is known to the Photography World as “The Mother of Surrealism. Her portfolio numbers more than 1500 photographs. The photographer recomposes reality in a very personal, surrealistic style, somewhere beyond Magritte and Man Ray. Her poetic universe in black and white, where social commitment and even utopia have found a place, is built by means of successive layering enhanced by solarization. To date, twelve books have been published featuring series of works by Astrid.
