5 reasons to visit Foam over the Spring Holiday:

FOUR NEW EXHIBITIONS
CHILDREN'S WORKSHOP
SUNDAY WALK-IN WORKSHOPS SEYDOU KEÏTA
FOTOBAAS
FOAM CAFÉ

THESE ARE OUR NEW EXHIBITIONS

Come and see the impressive portraits made by Seydou Keïta in the exhibition Bamako Portraits. In this exhibition, you can see studio photos in which the people of Mali made themselves as beautiful as possible over the course of the 50s and 60s. More historical imagery is on display in the exhibition Gold and Silver, where you can see photos from the American gold rush. A more contemporary approach to photography is on view in the exhibition Artist’s Proof, where Daniëlle van Ark raises questions about the valuation and authenticity of the medium of photography. Get lost in the myths and stories behind the exhibition Foam 3h: Tereza Zelenkova – A Snake That Disappeared Through a Hole in the Wall.
