'My Amsterdam. My Amsterdammers. That's what Ed van der Elsken wanted to capture, preferably from nice and close by. 'People from decent neighborhoods, the Nieuwmarkt, the Jodenbuurt, the Pijp, Kattenburg. People who never come to the Apollolaan or the Goudkust, well maybe as a milkman, or as a burglar.'
Ed van der Elsken loved commotion, action. Not for nothing did he call Amsterdam "my hunting ground. He photographed demonstrations, the market, the fair, traffic. But also workmen, rebellious youths and pretty girls. And 'dirty knoll merchants' who often cracked down on riots. The photographs he took in 'his city' between 1947 and 1970 he collected in the photobook Amsterdam, the first edition of which appeared in 1979. His innovative and disarming style made the book a classic. Now a reissue appears, for which new scans have been made of all the original negatives.
