Found the building, staff and general atmosphere to be positive and uplifting. Pleasant coffee and book/souvenir shops. Mainly an accessible place with a couple of disappointments - steps breaking up the Mantz show in the basement and the lift to the upper floor out of order. However, as I was there to Attend the MARTIN SCHOELLER | BIG HEADS, exhibition,, these were not major concerns on this occasion. Big Heads is running until September 2nd. Stunning showcas of Shoeless" photographic skills, with a variety of well known and unknown subjects. Impressively curated, beautifully lit exhibition. The accompanying video is most informative. Really enjoyed the afternoon and would definitely recommend visiting the fotomuseum if you are anywhere close...

Wir waren im März 23 im Fotomuseum und fanden alle Ausstellungen eher mittelmäßig bis enttäuschend. Anmerkung: Mein Sohn und ich haben beruflich mit Foto- und Videographie zu tun. Laut Wunsch des Museums erweitere ich meine Rezension um folgende Zeilen: 1. THE GALLERY OF HONOUR OF DUTCH PHOTOGRAPHY: Hat uns am Besten gefallen, weil die Bandbreite der Fotografie sehr weit ist. Von historischen Fotos bis zu aktuellen Portraits. Mein persönlicher Favorit: Das Porträt von Nick Cave - bin halt ein Kind der 80er ;-) Weitere Bilder und die bewegte Präsentation auf der Leinwand im Eingangsbereich sind ebenfalls beeindruckend, auch wenn die Ansammlung der Bilder insgesamt etwas willkürlich wirkt und es direkt sichtbar wenig Erläuterungen dazu gibt. 2. OUT OF THIS WORLD | SANJA MARUŠIĆ: Fotos in dieser Stilrichtung habe ich gefühlt schon in den 80er, 90er Jahren gesehen - nicht Neues also... Schön bunt und zudem durch Nacktheit ergänzt, das geht immer. Wenn dann ein Baby ins Leben tritt, wird es natürlich auch in den bunten Kosmos eingebaut. Am Peinlichsten fand ich die Videosequenzen mit den durch "Schultüten" ergänzten Armen. Selbsterfahrung mit Wüstenhintergrund - das ist doch wirklich Studenten-Level! 3.SIBERIAN EXILES: BALTIC TESTIMONIES OF SOVIET REPRESSION | CLAUDIA HEINERMANN: Geschichtlich fand ich das sehr interessant, auch weil es einen Teil der deutschen Geschichte belichtet, die mir so nicht (mehr) bewußt war. Die Fotos sehr dokumentarisch, aber leider auch sehr distanziert. Da kommt kein Gefühl der Deportierten rüber, sondern nur die reine Dokumentation - Schade und meiner Ansicht nach eine vertane Chance!

Insgesamt fand ich die Ausstellungen in keinster Weise "inspirierend", dagegen eher durchschnittlich und langweilig. Mein Sohn hat mir nach unserem Besuch einige Profile von Fotografen auf Instagram gezeigt, und siehe da: Das hat mein Fotografenbilderherz sofort angeregt - das Feuer Bilder zu machen, erneuert. Fazit: Von "Nederlands fotomuseum" hätte ich viel mehr erwartet... so in etwa das, was die niederländische Architektur vermag. Nämlich zu begeistern und zu erstaunen, und ein Gegensatz zur deutschen...

The exhibitions varied in quality.

One was scattered famous people mixed up with photos from Amsterdam neighborhoods. Although the photos were good, I would have liked to see more of a connection between them as well as more focus on the Rotterdam area.

Another focused on AI and the tech behind it was semi-interesting but the execution was not particularly eye catching.

A third was focused on refugee stories and this one was emotional as well as connected. Very impactful.

A fourth was architectural in a range of ways. I really liked how this connected the local expertise with global buildings.

All in all good variety, but some more focus could enhance...

This Dutch museum for photography has a huge collection of top class photographs from top class photographers. So can can draw from this collection to make very interesting exhibitions which never disappoint. The location is in the part of where an old busy port of Rotterdam used to be and the museum is housed in one of the old warehouses from that time. The whole area is now full of restaurants, hotels and there is the cruise terminal. With the so called Museumkaart you can get in for free so when you are planning to visit more museums in The Netherlands it may be a good idea to get one as normal entry prices are sometimes very high.

A great resource for photographers. The large exhibition space played host to an interesting exhibition that was well curated. The exhibition also featured a slideshow displayed across multiple backgrounds with accompanying music. The attached shop is large and contains a lot of choice in photobooks and also a sale section where I picked up two books for only €25 which is a great value for a well printed photobook. The staff were very friendly and had big smiles on their faces also.
