The new yearbook Dutch Heights oversees the cultural award landscape of Holland. For the first time Dutch award winners in art and culture of one year have been brought together in one book: Dutch Heights.
Room 103
What is a photograph worth? A thousand words, as they say in journalism? Or perhaps just 203 words, as Jeroen Kramer discovers one day in Baghdad. Is a picture worth your happiness? Your self-respect? Your name? Your life? Starkly honest and coldly beautiful, Room 103 is an unblinking study not only of life and death in the strife-torn middle east but also of Kramer's inner struggle to come to terms with the human failings, aesthetic limitations and brutal insights of his chosen path. A limited edition is now available.
