Photographers and their gear Ages ago, it seems, I was sent to New York to interview and photograph Art Kane and Ralph Gibson for a magazine called Zero. I really felt on top of things. It was the first time I boarded an airplane. I went to Art Kane first and his British assistant tried […]
Women and their Harleys It really is a pleasure to have most of your negatives digitized. Well, certainly not all of them, but I keep finding series that I have long forgotten. This was an assignment for a Dutch weekly, and it is one of the very few series that I actually planned with the […]
Looking back Creating this (partially) new website is also a stroll through my archives and I dug up some of my oldest photographs and I put them in perspective on a page called Early Photographs. I am doing this against my old rule that no photograph should ever need text to accompany it. In this […]
I am a compulsive website creator, so I often end up with about seven to ten sites for different projects covering different disciplines or subjects. I am not saying that I will merge all these sites into one, but at least three will be merged into this one site which has been mainly focused on […]

UNCENSORED at NDSM-Fuse The exhibit at NDSM-Fuse came in two parts. The first part was a prequel during the Pride and featured a selection of works of the GENDER! Series. (See video. Dutch only, I am sorry.) The second part was a retrospective exhibit, including the complete GENDER! series and works from different series between […]
UNCENSORED The June exhibit of 21st Century Madonnas in Zürich, Switzerland was cancelled due to the lockdown. Plans to get the GENDER! exhibit on the road for artistic and educational purposes were postponed. Luckily NDSM-fuse had 600 square meters available for an exhibit. At first I was quite overblown by the idea of filling such a large […]
