Photo Exhibition: Rufus de Vries and Amsterdam's Diverse Urbanity Transformation

This photo exhibition by Rufus de Vries explores Amsterdam's transformation into a multicentric city. It showcases the unique character and diversity of various urban areas through photographic documentation, capturing how different districts are developing into complete urban regions.

Amsterdam is evolving from a concentric city with a historic core into a multicentric urban landscape, with diverse areas developing their own distinct characters. Photographer Rufus de Vries embarked on a quest to capture this evolving diversity and uniqueness, presenting his findings at Arcam. The exhibition features photographic documentation of this exploration, offering glimpses into the richness of the city. Visitors can expect to see images that tell stories of areas like Sloterdijk Stationskwartier, which is used for a multitude of activities including living, working, and traveling; the entrepreneurial spirit along Willem de Zwijgerlaan; the new allure of the Wibautstraat populated by students; the open-air stage provided by the Waterlandplein; and everyday encounters on Buikslotermeerplein. A related event, a discussion on 'the multicentric city', is scheduled for September 5th, featuring Rufus de Vries, designers, and academics, moderated by Indira van 't Klooster of Arcam.
