Opening exhibition: NEW ENERGY
Expositie klimaat Warming Up Festival
Kadir van Lohuizen is an internationally acclaimed photographer and filmmaker known for his keen eye and ability to capture major social issues in a compelling way. His work focuses, among other things, on the consequences of rising sea levels, the global food industry, and, this time, the global energy transition. Is this truly a transition, and how does it work in practice? Who benefits from it, and who suffers?
Of course, resources and profits are once again distributed unevenly, especially when it comes to extracting the raw materials needed to build wind turbines and other forms of green energy. Kadir investigated this as a filmmaker and photographer, gaining access to places where no one else is allowed to go. Through the combination of the large artwork on the exterior wall and the video inside, you can see what he has been through, what his perspective on the energy transition is, and whether he has hope for the future of Amsterdam Noord.
