The Photo museum. The Nederlands Fotomuseum annually organises exhibitions of and about photography. Not

only in its own exhibition galleries but also at other locations.Old family photographs, well

known news photos, exciting scientific photographs or experimental photoworks by visual

artists they are all to be seen in the museum of photography. Depending on the nature or

subject of the temporary exhibitions, activities are launched, publications brought out,guided tours given and meetings organised. There is thus always something to suit your

taste, whether you are a layman or expert, photography fan or imagemaker, hobbyist orstudent.

The Nederlands Fotomuseum has moved to its new premises in Las Palmas and now has

almost two thousand square metres of exhibition space at its disposal more than three

times as much as it had in the Witte de Withstraat. Besides changing exhibitions there willalso be semi-permanent exhibitions organised around certain themes, ensuring that you will

always be able to see beautiful and remarkable photographs from the rich history of

photography in the Nederlands Fotomuseum

The Nederlands Fotomuseum also pays attention to less obvious sides of photography. Of course you will regularly find photographs by young and prominent Dutch photographers,

but you will just as often encounter photographs that are important because of their

meaning in everyday life. It is precisely this wide range of applications and manifestations in

which photography is encountered and used every day that makes the medium so influentialand fascinating.

My opinion ¡

I thought th a t th e tour cou ld have bee n be tt e r and th e e ¢ hibition re ally isn t m e nd for

t ee nage rs th a t a re n t into th ese kind of thing s. Going with a cla ss of people th a t fo llow th e

cla ss of CKVre ally has it downf alls. Not eve ryon e is int e res te d in thi s and it bring s oth e r

people do wn with th em. The e ¢ hibition itse lf wa s also a l itt le bit off . And for som eon e who likes photogr ap hy like m e I wou ld ha ve e ¢ pec ted m or e th an wha t we have got fr o m th em.

The tour wa sn t compl e te . It on ly sho wed us a small pa rt of so m e thing so big and so m e

pictur es were too vagu e in th e ir m e aning . W hat I m ean by th a t is th a t it too k a w hile be for e I

The e ¢ hibition cou ld ha ve bee n be tt e r, but it also ha s to do with pe rson al t a st e and w ha t

kind of photogr ap hy you like . The sub jec t wa s gr e a t, but th e wa y it has bee n p rese nt e d cou ld

I ll give it 2 a nd a halve out of five st ars.
