In the spotlight

Exhibition on Johan van der Keuken in EYE

From 30 March to 9 June 2013, EYE presents the exhibition ‘Johan van der Keuken / Up to the light. Filmmaker and photographer’. The exhibition’s line of approach is the extraordinary way in which Van der Keuken brought together contrasting images in his films and observed a world in constant transition. Always on his travels but also close to home, Van der Keuken intercut his observations in Africa, Asia or Latin America with similar or indeed diametrically opposed situations.
