Ontwaken in blauw
An Ode to Cyanotype celebrates the timeless beauty of one of the oldest and most recognizable photographic techniques: the cyanotype.
The deep blue medium is known for its artisanal nature and slow, direct working method. In addition to rare, early blueprints, the exhibition features work by fifteen contemporary artists. They breathe new life into nineteenth-century techniques and combine them with new media and diverse materials. Their work explores current themes such as ecology, colonialism, and the body as a living archive.
The exhibition is designed by Maison the Faux, a Dutch interdisciplinary collective known for its groundbreaking work at the intersection of fashion, performance, and installation art. It runs until June 7, 2026.
