Reykjavík Museum of Photography

The travelling exhibition Twosomes is a compilation of works from the 40 year career of American photographer Mark Chester. The photographs depict people, cityscapes, nature and objects that Chester has encountered during his travels in Europe, Asia, Australia and the Americas. The series brings to light pairings in Chester‘s photographs and the dialogue between different subjects, places and periods.

Mark Chester has worked as a professional photographer since 1972. His photographs and feature stories have been published in the New York Times, Washington Post, Boston Globe and Los Angeles Times, among other periodicals. Twosomes (2011) is Chester‘s most recent published photography book, accompanied by a travelling exhibition. His earlier work include the exhibition and catalogue Shanghai: In Black and White (1987) and the photography book No in America (1986).
