Some photographers search for subjects. Knut Bry finds them everywhere. His story begins in Hovet, a small mountain village in Hallingdal, Norway, where a curious farmer's son discovered early on that the world stretched far beyond the valley he called home.

He designed and sewed his own extravagant clothes, escaped into the pages of international magazines, and eventually set off to see the world—first as a chef, then a fashion designer, a model, and finally, a photographer. The rest has become part of Norwegian (international?)  photographic history.

Over the past five decades Knut Bry has moved effortlessly between Paris, Milan, New York, the Sahara, Siberia, and remote places most people never stop to notice. He has photographed legendary fashion houses, cultural icons, forgotten landscapes, and people whose stories rarely make headlines. One day, a supermodel. The next, a stranger on a quiet street. To Knut, every encounter, every face, every place, every fleeting moment holds the possibility of something extraordinary.
