In 2018 Stephan Keppel started collecting works and stories of Amsterdam; the city where he lives, and works. The city is constantly changing, and so are the visible, invisible, social, and historic structures. In ‘Soft Copy Hard Copy’ Stephan Keppel explores and organizes these structures, creating an organic index of the city. This book is part of Keppel's ongoing research on the public space, urban structures and reproduction, and is combining his own photographs with re-photographed a...

TELEVISIE REMAKES bevat ca. 200 fotocollages door JOS HOUWELING

JOS HOUWELING over dit boek: "TELEVISIE REMAKES bestaat uit foto's gemaakt van het televisiescherm. Voordeel: je hoeft voor het maken de deur niet uit. Op de eerste pagina's televisiefoto's uit de jaren tachtig, drie voetbalfoto's komen uit 2018, de rest uit 2019.

De televisie was voor mij een rusteloze muze met te veel gezichten. Soms leerzaam, soms een bron van hoofdpijn. In TELEVISIE REMAKES zijn de televisiebeelden stilgezet en...

Gefascineerd door taboes en het irrationele vindt filmmaker Ramón Gieling overal verhalen: ‘Ik geloof in wat ik niet begrijp.’ In zijn vroegere muziekdocent Simeon ten Holt vond hij een groot inspirator, maar ook in bekende regisseurs als Johan van der Keuken, Jean-Luc Godard, Peter Brook, Luis Buñuel, Francis Ford Coppola, Alejandro Iñárritu en Stanley Kubrick. Wegens werkzaamheden geopend werpt een blik op Gielings werk en neemt de lezer mee in zijn waarnemingen en soms surrealistis...

Around 1960, Ed van der Elsken (1925-1990) put together a photobook on the theme of feest (feast). Drawing from both old and new work, he produced a design that is a sequence of festive occasions: fun, celebration, dancing, music, fairs, carnivals, excitement and euphoria, but also drunkenness and exhaustion in the wee hours. He combined the individual photographs into sparkling and rhythmical pairings, so that a genuine sense of joy emanates from the pages. At the time, for reasons unknown, ...
