This monograph is the first comprehensive US publication on Rineke Dijkstra, accompanying her mid-career survey exhibition. It showcases Dijkstra's work in photography and video, including her renowned Beach Portraits and early series like new mothers and bullfighters. The volume also features her ongoing Almerisa series, documenting an immigrant girl's growth since 1994. Essays by curators Jennifer Blessing and Sandra S. Phillips, an artist interview by Jan van Adrichem, and subject interviews by Sophie Derkzer enrich the text. Prominent since the 1990s, Dijkstra's impactful large-scale portraits capture individuals in transitional states across global locations.
