Ulf Berglund has been a photographer since the beginning of the ’80s and started by documenting punk in Gävle. After working for the major evening newspapers and Svenska Dagbladet, he now has his base in Stockholm. Today he is a freelancer and does reports from almost the whole world.

“The Election” depicts Nelson Mandela’s path to the presidency and the revolutionary period in South Africa 1993-94. The situation during this time was much more complex than black or white in the apartheid state of South Africa and the groupings were many more than is often described. In Ulf’s description, this becomes clear.

The year after Mandela’s death on December 5, 2013, Tres Hombres Art showed a large separate exhibition around this project, with, among other things, a seminar and a deeper presentation in the congress hall. Tres Hombres Art has also later shown this exhibition in Stockholm.
