The Krazyhouse

Rineke Dijkstra The Krazyhouse The portfolio combines stills from the video work The Krazyhouse with a few earlier portraits of disco girls in Liverpool. Dijkstra filmed five adolescents against a white backdrop while they were dancing to their own chosen music. An extraordinary relationship with the camera develops, since the young people seem to alternate between awareness of the camera and, just as frequently, forgetting it's there.
