POPVIEW/Lex van Rossen Award 2010
Popview is a European podium for pop photography and gives music photographers under the age of 35 the chance to profile themselves for an international audience, outside the normal context of music and news publications, internet and artwork. In collaboration with Noorderlicht the curators of Popview have made a selection of ten talented young music photographers. During the Eurosonic/Noorderslag music festival one of them will win the Lex van Rossen Award, an incentive prize for the most promising European pop photographer.
We are pleased to announce this years nominees whose work will be on show in the Noorderlicht Photogallery through 28 February:
Kim Badawi (FR), Ami Barwell (UK), Titia Hahne (NL), Nick Helderman (NL), Janos Kummer (HU), Jens van der Velde (NL), Vrederick (NL), Graham Smith (UK), Laurence Tarquin Von Thomas (BE) and Joachim Zimmermann (DE)
Dennis Duijnhouwer – Popular work
In the solo exhibition ‘Popular work’ Duijnhouwer forages around in all the possible corners of popular music culture. With a selection of work made from 2005 to the present, the photographer asks what pop photography really is, and where its boundaries lie. ‘If I make a photo of a DJ at work at his turntables or a sweating kid on a stage with a guitar, there is no question that is pop photography. But what if I photograph two girls from the audience in the smoking area? Or my girlfriend, who happens to play in a band? Or the w.c. in a nightclub?’
