Foam exhibition: Massimo Vitali

There are a couple days left to experience the Massimo Vitali exhibition at the Foam Photograph Museum in Amsterdam. From the website:

"The Italian photographer Massimo Vitali (1944, Como) is famous for his monumental photographs of large groups of people. These focus especially on contemporary leisure time activities: the beach, the disco, mass tourism. Typical of his work is the congregation of a large, impersonal group, in which details and individual stories can nevertheless be identified. Vitali's photos are the result of a complex work process. He generally uses a classic wooden Deardorff 11 by 14 inch camera to record everything with the greatest of precision and from an elevated vantage point. The images are then digitally enlarged to form impressive panoramas. The results are images with an extremely wide visual field and at the same time a high degree of detail."

The exhibition ends September 9th, 2009. Foam is located at Keizersgracht 609 in Amsterdam, and is open daily from 10am-6pm, and Thursdays and Fridays until 9pm.
