"Sacha de Boer 'Retour New York-Amsterdam'" Book Release Party
Clic Bookstore & Gallery (424 Broome St.)
This event has ended.
Sacha de Boer celebrates the release of her new book ’Retour New York-Amsterdam’ in New York. A book about Dutch artists in New York and American artists in Amsterdam.
Amsterdam has a real pull for American artists, and a number of painters, sculptors, photographers and other visual artists from the United States call the Dutch capital home. At the same time, many Dutch artists are drawn to New York.
In this book of photographs and interviews, Sacha de Boer examines sixteen expatriate artists and their studios on both sides of the Atlantic. Why did these artists choose to live and work in New York or Amsterdam? What is the special appeal of their adopted cities? How do these very different cities inspire these foreign artists?
The book includes interviews with Charlotte Dumas, David Lindbergh, Heather Jeltes-Davis, Liselot van der Heijden, Leo de Goede, Sebastiaan Bremer, Karen Birnholz, Betsy Green, Hans Broek and Helen Verhoeven.
Sacha de Boer is a photographer, journalist and news anchor for the Dutch broadcaster NOS.
