Anders Ryman är fotograf och skribent och hans bilder och reportage har publicerats i otaliga svenska och internationella tidskrifter, bland annat i Animan, GEO och nordiska National Geographic. Under 1980-talet bedrev han forskarstudier i kulturantropologi, vilket avspeglas i hans intresse för människor och kulturer.
Sedan år 2000 har Anders arbetat med det storslagna dokumentära projektet Livets steg, som fört honom till ett tjugotal kulturer runt om vår jord. Förutom boken Livets steg (Rites of Life på engelska) har projektet resulterat i ett flertal utställningar som turnerar internationellt.
Everywhere in the world, among all people, ceremony marks the transitions from one stage of life to another. For more than seven years, photographer and anthropologist Anders Ryman traveled around the world and documented more than thirty rites—baptism, accession to manhood, confirmation, graduation and marriage, to name but a few. The result is a book of powerful images and compelling words depicting the ways people around the world engage in life’s most important moments. Culture, religion and traditions may vary dramatically, but we humans are fundamentally very similar and we all possess a need to manifest the steps we take on the path of life. The book is sold in an exclusive box in the form of a cassette, and makes an excellent gift for celebrations such as graduations, christenings, birthdays and weddings. Rites of Life encompasses 560 pages and contains more than 280 images.
