About Staffan Löfving

Staffan Löfving, born in 1967, is an anthropologist based at Karlstad University and the University of Johannesburg. In the late 1980s and early 1990s, he pursued a career in photojournalism, taking him to zones of armed conflict in Latin America and Asia, to Mostar in 1993, and besieged Sarajevo in 1994. This sample of images from September 1994 was curated by artist and gallerist Saša Bukvić (1949 - 2023) for an exhibition in Gallery Zvono in Sarajevo in 2016. It forms part of Staffan Löfving’s long-term research engagement in visual anthropology and his efforts at understanding the social and political currency of wartime photographs in post-war societies. The collection has been donated to the History Museum of Bosnia and Herzegovina. www.kau.se/en/researchers/staffan-lofving
