The "Ivar Lo-priset" goes to Andrzej Tichý.

Congratulation to the Swedish-Czech-Polish writer Andrzej Tichý who received the Swedish literary prize Ivar Lo-priset.

The Ivar Lo-priset is a literary prize which is awarded by the Swedish Trade Union Confederation (Landsorganisationen i Sverige, LO).

It was established as a tribute to Ivar Lo-Johansson on his 85th birthday, February 23, 1986. Until his death in 1990, Ivar Lo-Johansson was part of the scholarship fund, which annually appoints a significant working-class author.

All the portraits of Andrzej Tichý are available at the Opale Agency.

Höganäs Summer Book Festival 2021.

I participated during two days (17-18 September) at the Book Festival which took place in Höganäs (south of Sweden) in the new restored event and exhibition hall Blå Hallen.

I could present the six photo books I published and also exhibit a few portraits of writers. Thanks to the Höganäs Book Festival team for giving me the opportunity to take part of the festival !
