Originally from Italy, Massimo Leardini has lived and worked in Norway since 1987 and become one of the most sought-after photographers in Scandinavia. Roted in the classical tradition, Leardini uses his unique aesthetic sensibility to capture the human body entwined with the timeless Scandinavian landscape. His work has been published in several books and exhibited widely around the world.
