Jan van IJken photographs man & animal in the Netherlands

12 November 2005 - 22 January 2006

Starting in 1975 the Rijksmuseum's History of the Netherlands Department has given an annual assignment ot a photographer. As of 1997 this assignment, which inlcudes an exhibition of photographs, has been organized in collaboration with the NRC Handelsblad newspaper under the title Document Nederland (Document the Netherlands). The basic idea is to register each year in a series of photographs a current aspect of Dutch society.

Prolonged until 26 February 2006!
