Documentary projects

Since 1980, Carel van Hees (b. 1954, Rotterdam) has been working as documentary photographer in assignment for advertising agencies, companies, municipal institutions and for a range of weekly and monthly magazines such as Vrij Nederland and NRC M Magazine. Next to these assignments he concentrates on his own projects. Some of his most renowned projects and books include Saxman, Play, Cross Fade, 2KM2, and Cor Eversteijn.

Most recently, Van Hees was commissioned by the Rijksmuseum’s Document Nederland project to make a visual record of education in the Netherlands, focusing specifically on his hometown: Rotterdam.
