Exhibitions Beyond the Image: Bertien Van Manen & Friends
In close liaison with Dutch photographer Bertien Van Manen, the exhibition combined each of her series with the work of another photographer, fourteen in total, including Nan Goldin, Boris Mikhailov and Rineke Dijkstra. This provides a counterpoint to Van Manen’s work, granting a broader context, emphasis, contrast or counterbalance. The exhibition was structured visually and thematically rather than chronologically and features a total of 11 series by Bertien van Manen. Her work was shown in dialogue with photographers who, like Van Manen, often find their subjects in their immediate environment, and return to them repeatedly over prolonged periods of time.
