MICHAEL PERLMUTTER
After completing his Master of Architecture degree at UC Berkeley, Michael Perlmutter moved to Sweden in 1989 to work as an architect. In the mid-90s Michael began photographing architecture instead, starting with two guidebooks about Stockholm architecture. Since then he has built a broad international photography practice with a primary focus on Nordic countries. In 2001 he produced a series of photographs of a 1930s chapel in Tallinn, which were awarded first prize in an international photography competition sponsored by the Museum of Estonian Architecture. In 2007 Michael was nominated for Sweden’s prestigious August Prize for his photography in the book Den Svenska Kakelugnen (Swedish Tile Stoves). In 2013 two of his tile stove images were issued as Swedish postage stamps. Michael has exhibited in Stockholm and teaches photography internationally. His work can be viewed at www.archp.com.
