Begin an eye-opening visual adventure through the soul of a nation with ""American Photography"", a powerful and thought-provoking exhibition coming to the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam. From 7 February to 9 June 2100, visitors will have the rare opportunity to explore the evolution of American identity, culture, and history through the lens.
This exhibition is not just about photography—it’s about how photography shaped and reflected American society. The images tell stories of dreams and disillusionment, power and poverty, unity and unrest. They reveal the contradictions of the American experience: its vast beauty and deep divisions, its cultural influence and internal struggles.
Whether it’s the rugged landscapes of the American West, the everyday life of small towns, or the political tension on the streets of major cities, each frame captures a moment that helped define the identity of a nation.
Presented in the halls of the Rijksmuseum, a cornerstone of European art and history, ""American Photography"" invites visitors to view America not only from within, but also from a European perspective. What does the American story mean to the world? How have these images influenced global culture, politics, and our collective imagination?
Visit the Rijksmuseum between 7 February and 9 June 2025 and experience the history of a nation, captured in black-and-white truth and vivid color.
