Willem Diepraam

Edición de la obra Willem Diepraam

The exhibition 'Willem Diepraam. 50 Years of Photography' presents highlights of the photographer's oeuvre, including images from the 1970s of a now all-but unrecognisable Netherlands, as well as examples of his international photojournalistic work. This presentation also includes Diepraam's later almost abstract black-and-white and colour work, as well as well-known images of the unrest in Amsterdam on coronation day in 1980, the 'woman of Sahel', industrial landscapes from the Landschap aan Zee ('Landscape along the sea') series and Lima. He maintains a physical distance from his subjects, but never an emotional one. The book published to accompany the exhibition comprises a selection by Willem Diepraam himself of cherished work from the past 50 years. Exhibition: Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam, The Netherlands (09.10.2020-10.01.2021).
