This large-format volume, designed by Irma Boom and Rineke Dijkstra, highlights the female figure in Dijkstra's photography. The book encompasses three decades of work, focusing on women and girls captured in various settings, such as parks, beaches, and parties, to convey a powerful sense of presence. It includes selections from Dijkstra's well-known series, presented non-chronologically to offer new perspectives. Published to commemorate Dijkstra's 2017 Hasselblad Award, the book blends photo and video portraits and features essays on her empathetic connection with subjects and image layout logic. This limited-edition book reflects Dijkstra's artistic vision akin to 17th-century Dutch portraiture.
