“This Much is True” by Photographer Albert Elm

A collection of images reflecting life at home and abroad by Danish photographer Albert Elm. The followup to his acclaimed debut monograph, “What Sort of Life is This,” Elm’s new book captures a particular moment in time, shaped by his age, circumstances, and surroundings. From an Italian marble quarry to an industrial pipe system outside Mumbai, Elm has assembled a series of scenes that manage to feel both global and personal. Like many of us, Elm is navigating the constant barrage of information and ever-changing nature of contemporary life. His work emerges from a desire to make sense of our reality as well as to push its limits. “This Much is True” is an act of observation as we witness Elm’s understanding and view of the world takes shape before our eyes.

The book is currently available for pre-order via Disko Bay. Click here for more details.
