    2023: Book publication "Ernst Haas: Letters And Stories" by Inge Bondi (USA); research and writing associate. Publisher Damiani, Italy

    The forthcoming book "Ernst Haas: Letters And Stories" by publisher Damiani, Italy, is a book that is very dear to me. It has been written by my friend Inge Bondi (Berlin, 1925) and over the course of the past ten years I have had the honour to assist Inge as a research and writing associate. It led me on many extended stays in her home in Princeton, NJ, and on a journey of history, poetry, photography and friendship.

    Release date in USA and World Wide: October 2023

    Website publisher: https://www.damianibooks.com/en/products/6208805

    Inge Bondi joined Magnum Photos in 1950 and eventually became the director of special projects and the only non-photographer with stock and voting rights in the famed photography co-operative. After leaving Magnum in 1970, she became an author and educator on photography. In recent years she has been working on this book.

    2022: Dialogue Vintage Photography Fair, Amsterdam (NL); guest curator of the lecture program

    In 2022 I curated the lecture program for the annual vintage photography fair Dialogue. The theme was Private Eye, about the search for new perspectives on historical photography. Hosted by Saskia Asser and Rixt Bosma.

    The program:

    Fact and fiction
    For some years now, Spaarnestad Photo has been looking for collaborations with young artists that lead to interesting results at the intersection of fact and fiction. Director Ellen Dosse talks to Saskia Asser about how students of the Royal Academy of Art in The Hague delve into the Spaarnestad Photo archives and give new meaning to old (press) photos.

    Genealogy and family portraits
    Peter Eyckerman is a professional genealogist with a specialism in historical photography. How can you learn about your ancestors by looking at family photos? Using examples, he will talk about his research, the methods and techniques of family tree research and how these play a role in the identification of old photo portraits. Afterwards, Peter Eyckerman will hold a walk-in consultation hour until 2 pm. You are welcome to bring your own family portraits.

    Clara von Waldthausen & Bert Teunissen: photo paper
    Photographer Bert Teunissen collected photo paper for years. He bought old batches from individuals, and searched the web and on trips (including to factories in Croatia) for the remnants of the era of analog photography. His collection is a unique source, which he partly uses to print his own photos. In conversation with art historian and photo restorer Clara von Waldthausen, they dive into the unexposed paper together, explore its qualities and discuss this material at the intersection of science and art.

    Case Study: the Jewish girl in Nico Jesse's photo
    Historical researchers Jim Terlingen and Victor Frederik from Utrecht discovered the identity of a Jewish girl in a well-known photo of Nico Jesse, 80 years after it was taken. In 1942, street photographer Jesse was commissioned by the municipality of Utrecht to capture street scenes. In the Agnietenstraat he photographed three girls with Jewish stars on their clothes. The photo, which became much publicized over the years, captivated Jim Terlingen and Victor Frederik. They talk about their successful search for the identity of the girl.

    Presentation Hans Aarsman
    Photographer, writer, photo editor, theater maker and self-proclaimed photo detective Hans Aarsman gives a lecture with light images. “What am I actually seeing?” is the question Aarsman asks himself time and again. As a now renowned photo detective, he dissects photography in an original way and takes the public on a journey through his detective work and fieldwork in his columns, books and plays.

    New York City 1840-1870: Daguerreotype Studios and Georeferencing
    In a conversation with Rixt Bosma, the American photo historian and collector Jeremy Rowe talks about the development of the earliest photo studios in New York. Rowe is a great expert on 19th century American photography and in this project he uses daguerreotypes from his own collection and information from city archives to investigate the activity in Manhattan between 1840 and 1870. Georeferencing brings together historical maps and geographical data from the photo studios and shines a new light on business economic, social and urban developments.

    The conversation with Jeremy Rowe takes place via a live video connection. Rixt Bosma is present in person.

    Photo research in the 21st Century: Artificial Intelligence
    Art historian and photography specialist Annika Hendriksen (currently information developer at Naturalis Biodiversity Center) discusses with Saskia Asser the application of Artificial Intelligence to image collections. What is A.I.? And what can it mean for opening up photography collections? After a short general introduction, Annika Hendriksen and Saskia Asser dive into the computer-assisted observations and give examples of the first results of A.I. and natural history collections. Are we going to look differently at butterflies, cone snails and ray eggs?

    2018: Curator of Reflections on Two-Of-A-Kinds: The Historic Photography Collection of DOUBLES, a photography exhibition and book (in preparation)

    Reflections on Two-Of-A-Kinds: The Historic Photography Collection of DOUBLES is a collaboration with photographer Dan Budnik (Arizona, USA). The DOUBLES is a carefully curated photography collection by Budnik of hundreds historic photographic doubles (ca. 1850-1960). Budnik started collecting in the 1970s. The collection has been gifted to me in 2017.

    The DOUBLES tell the story of the unique and longstanding partnership of two photographic prints (from the same negative), of their individual AND shared history. Comparing the doubles reveal real and imagined histories, therefore this project has the potential not only to be embedded in a history of early photographic practice and photo conservation, but to also speak to one's imagination and poetic aesthetics.

Throughout his 40-year career as photojournalist for the Dutch quality daily paper NRC Handelsblad, Mentzel was able to work in often close proximity to the family. His photographs are characterized by an informal, sometimes even frivolous, yet always respectful approach. Mentzel's work gives a striking time-line of the Netherlands and the life of the House of Orange under Queen Beatrix.
