Other People's Pictures

Other People’s Pictures: Gifts from the Robert and Kerstin Adams Collection explores the reciprocal relationships among artists and their creative exchange of objects. 

Comprised of more than 70 photographic works selected from a collection donated to the DAM in 2018 by Robert and Kerstin Adams, this exhibition also examines the themes of collecting, the pleasure of looking, and how diverse points of view interact to shape perspectives.​

Through photographic themes of landscape and recreation; people and places; forces of nature; slowing down; and ethics, belief and memory, Other People’s Pictures invites visitors to contemplate their own connections to the objects, people, and places in their own lives and how photographs can convey that attachment.
