Huis Marseille

Huis Marseille is Amsterdam's first photography museum. For more than ten years now, Huis Marseille has been offering a varied exhibition program in which photography's rich history and diverse uses are given consideration.

In addition to this, the museum also frequently shows work from its own collection of contemporary photography. Huis Marseille serves as a platform for the particularization of photography. The museum provides a view of the 'landscape' taking shape in photography; it presents photographers, artists and forms of photography which do justice to visual quality and which can be counted among the medium's major, but also lesser known, highlights. This stands in contrast to the profusion of photography as a mass medium.
