Krass Clement is one of the most important Danish photographers. He has fans all over the world. Most of his books, especially the old ones, are strongly limited and very sought-after.

From the photographer's website:
"Clement's photographic work emerges from two traditions: The Scandinavian melancholy on the one hand and the 'flaneur' tradition from the Parisian school on the other. In his photography Krass is more concerned with capturing a state of mind than with situations. They are less documentary depictions than subjective moods somewhere between spectator and reality. Insisting on an artistic integrity, Krass Clement has created a strong personal body of work with the photobook as his favourite medium".
