The hardcover photobook Stil leven / Still life was published simultaneously to the Kunsthal exhibition of the same name. The book features the complete series of six talented photographers, who were commissioned by the Droom en Daad Foundation to capture the city of Rotterdam during the COVID-19 pandemic. Each photograhpher captured the city from his own perspective. Photographers Khalid Amakran, Loes van Duijvendijk, Willem de Kam, Geisje van der Linden, Marwan Magroun, and Naomi Modde each shed light on different aspects of a city that seems frozen in its tracks.
Although they were taken in the city of Rotterdam, the photographs in these series are exemplary of what has been happening in lots of cities all over the world.
The photobook Stil leven / Still life includes an essay by writer and television maker Wilfried de Jong and a preface by Hanneke Mantel, photography curator of the Droom en Daad Foundation.
The photos from this book will also be on view at the exhibition “Stil Leven” at Kunsthal Rotterdam until 4 of July. Learn more about the exhibition here.
