This years fieldtrip of the Royal Academy of Art (KABK) in The Hague was to Novi Sad in Serbia. Over the course of one week photography students embarked on a journey in and around this Serbian city. All students made a person project which resulted in a publication, a website and a exhibition at several locations in Novi Sad.
Joining teachers were: Donald Weber, Ari Versluis, Lotte Sprengers, Rob Hornstra and me.

After being the image director from the very beginning of De Correspondent in 2013 I’m honoured to be promoted to deputy editor in chief of this journalism platform that provides an antidote to the daily news grind.
Update: in June 2018 I became editor in chief together with Rosan Smits.
The photo book Obama: An Intimate Portrait by Pete Souza is published. For years I’ve been going through his archive of Obama, analysing the orchestrated image forming of him as president. Does this photo book bring something new in addition to what we’ve seen?
