Dutch Dare is an up-to-date overview of 16 photographers and visual artists from the Netherlands; some world-famous, others from younger generations and not (yet) globally renowned. This publication reveals the outspoken and peculiar character of contemporary Dutch photography and video, presenting in the process a fascinating artistic vision of Dutch society.
Dutch Dare demonstrates that the Netherlands is no longer the country of tulips, cheese and clogs in a fresh survey of contemporary Dutch photography.
The photographs that the compiler Frits Gierstberg has selected for the book offer a new perspective on contemporary Dutch society. The book includes work by Gerco de Ruijter, Marnix Goosens, Roy Villevoye, Hans van der Meer, Elspeth Diederix, Gertjan Kocken, Julika Rudelius, Jaap Scheren, Anouk Kruithof, Martine Stig, Viviane Sassen, Marike Schuurman and Useful Photography.
