Come to Unseen Photo Fair at Westergasfabriek
The main photography fair takes place in the Gashouder, the magnificent cylindrical-shaped hall. Here, there are exhibitions from 65 galleries from all over the world. This is the focal point that connects photographers, aspiring artists, curators and photography enthusiasts on a world-class level.
Here you can marvel at the ground-breaking masterpieces of exciting established and emerging artists and photographers. Many artists present their premieres at the fair.
Unseen Unbound
In the Transformatorhuis Hall, you can encounter around 10 large-scale, boundary-defying projects where photography crosses over into digital art, installations, performance art, sculpture, landscaper art, virtual reality and video art.
Meijburg Lounge
The Meijburg Lounge is situated in the Westerliefde, a beautiful space that features an exhibition of the shortlisted artists of the Meijburg Art Commission, a set up for informal artist talks and a bar. A lively spot that is used for the public to rest their legs for a bit, enjoy talks and presentations, and as a meeting point for the many patron groups that Unseen hosts.
Unseen Book Market
Over 60 independent and international book publishers offer their unique photography publications at the Unseen Book Market, many of which are a result of creatives experimenting with printed and bound formats. There will be impromptu book launches, book signings and discussions.
