Kahmann Gallery presents the solo exhibition The Age of Innocence of Rutger ten Broeke (1944). In this exhibition highlights from the almost fifty year long career of Ten Broeke will be combined with his latest works.
Ten Broeke is a key figure for the development of photography in the Netherlands, both artistically and commercially. While he was still studying at the renowned Rietveld Academy in Amsterdam, he started his own company RTB Photography. In 1984 he organised the Photography Biennial in Enschede, the first of its kind in the Netherlands. He worked for various fashion pulbications and started the gallery F32 in 1985, one of the first Dutch galleries to specialise in photography. Ten Broeke also teached for many years at the AKI (Academy for Arts and Industry) in Enschede, where he trained multiple generations of photographers. His home in Baarlo was and is a unique place for photography and photographers.
Here Ten Broeke welcomes extraordinary figures from the field and explores the artistic side of the medium, but also tutors in developing and printing techniques in the dark room.
