    Colors of the World Exposition

    Dear Visitor 

    Every day we are surrounded by an ever-changing kaleidoscope of life in color. From the soft pastels of a sunset to the bright lights of a bustling city, color envelops us all. Color is a force that moves and motivates, relaxes and reassures, excites and fascinates. These shades are constantly evolving. From the hazy, early morning calm of a blue lake beginning to reflect the soft orange of a rising sun, to the green moss on a forest floor growing into a rich canopy of brown, red and gold leaves. Colors can be powerful and subtle, whether it is the graceful red of a ladybugs shield or the blinding colors of the northern lights against a pristine, icy background. With this exhibition, we hope to redirect human ambivalence toward color into a sense of awe and disbelief. In societies that are constantly overwhelmed by color-bombarded advertisements, clothing and technology, these photographs allow us to take a step back and rediscover the importance and significance of color in our world. We hope you enjoy your visit to Colors of the World in Rotterdam or Zierikzee.

    Inspired by the history of Rotterdam as a port city, the festival provides the selected photographers with exhibition space in repurposed shipping containers, as well as the public space of Rotterdam city to bring photography outside the ‘white cube’ tradition.

    In addition to the exhibitions, Rotterdam Photo organizes talks, workshops, and a fringe program with music and digital installations throughout the city. The festival feeling is created thanks to various exhibitions and leisure activities around for all participants. Street vendors, cafes, and restaurants on the festival’s location offer great food and delicious drinks – the public and participants can enjoy the events’ atmosphere, celebrating photography together with us.
