Rotterdam Photo Talks

Rotterdam Photo Talks is an evening for photo enthusiasts and professionals, looking for perspectives that shed a new light on our contemporary image society. Whether the topics are trending, underexposed, or highly debated the program will investigate, various aspects of visual culture and the role of photography in it, through keynotes, Q&A's and presentations. This upcoming edition we will continue to explore and be inspired by the notion of the photographic medium as a 'machina veritas', a topic that has kept the photography field busy ever since the 'invention' of photography in 1839.

Among the guest speakers are photographers and KABK alumni Robin Butter, visual storyteller Jan Rosseel and co-head KABK Photography department Rob Hornstra.
