Anders Petersen Anders Petersen’s photographic career began in the 1960s. It was an eventful period when he visited Hamburg for several years and photographed the people at the bar Café Lehmitz, which later became his most acclaimed project. In the 1970s, he published his first books, while working in photojournalism. During the 1980s, he began to focus on his own and more long-term projects. In 1984, the book Prison was published, the first in the trilogy about closed institutions. It was followed by the books Borderline to Love (1991) and No One Has Seen It All (1995), which are about elderly care and psychiatry, respectively.

City Diary is the title of his second exhibition at the Hasselblad Center, which will be shown during the spring and summer of 2024. It contains nearly 150 photographs taken over the past 60 years.
