At Jeu de Paume
Jeu de Paume, Paris presents a comprehensive exhibition of work by Dutch post-war photographer and filmmaker Ed van der Elsken (1950-1990). The exhibition was earlier on show at the Stedelijk Museum, Amsterdam and will travel to Fundació Mapfre, Madrid in 2018. The retrospective features a large selection of Ed van der Elsken’s varied work in film, photography and slideshows, including his iconic images of the bohemian youth in Paris from the fifties, his photographic and cinematic documentation of everyday life in the streets of Amsterdam and Tokyo from 1960-onwards, photographs from his travels in Africa as well as his books, excerpts from his films and slide shows, particularly Eye Love You and posthumously completed Tokyo Symphony.
