Sittard, Netherlands, 1959; lives and works in Amsterdam) has produced an impressive body of photographic and video work, offering a contemporary take on the genre of portraiture. By isolating people from their everyday context and searching for glimmers of individuality while focusing on subtle details, the posture and gaze of the subject. Dijkstra is fascinated with the theme of authenticity, the way people express their personality, and how you can capture a certain kind of naturalness in a photograph.The monograph will give an overview of Dijkstra's work, concentrating on the theme of transition, with series like New Mothers, Bullfighters and Almerisa. Also The Park series partly created in Tiergarten, Berlin will be presented, as will photographs which have remained in her archives and so far have not been published yet.
