1154:"After leaving Sweden, Steichen journeyed to Amsterdam. Following the success of the Stockholm meeting, similar gatherings were held in The Hague and in Amsterdam. Eva Besnyo (1910-2003), a Dutch photographer of Hungarian birth attended the meeting in Amsterdam. She remembers a large assembly at the studio of photographer Paul Huf (1924-2002). The meeting used the 'Stockholm protocol'; that is, photographers brought images, Steichen explained his plans for an exhibition on mankind and looked at photographs. Besides Besnyo, photographers present included Cas Oorthuys, Emmy Andriesse, Carl Blazer, Maria Austria, Ed van der Elsken, Henk Jonker and several others. Besnyo claims that most photographers did not dare bring too many of their photographs. However, photographer Ed van der Elsken (1925- 1990), whom she identified as the best of them all, brought practically his entire oeuvre. Steichen spent a large part of the evening looking at Van der Elsken's images, encouraging and advising the young photographer in his work. Elsken went on to enjoy a successful career; publishing several books of his work. Six Dutch photographers were included in The Family of Man exhibition, all of whom had attended the meeting at Paul Huf's studio." from Kristen Gresh (2005) The European roots of The Family of Man, History of Photography, 29:4, 331-343, DOI: 10.1080/03087298.2005.10442815 1183:"A good deal has been said about 'over-representation' of the 1960s and 1970s, calling it nostalgic and anachronistic radicalism. Some, however, rejoiced in its unflinching rejection of the art and culture that had become dominant as globalization intensified ... dX reached back to 1950 or even earlier, tracing and juxtaposing genealogies and individual interventions in photography, performance, installation, and videos, often cries-crossing genre boundaries. Interesting things happen to the work when a celebrated documentary photographer of the American Depression of the 1930s, Walker Evans, is seen in the same show as a contemporary Canadian photographer, Jeff Wall, who works with large, digitally constructed photographic narratives. The variety of work on display was striking: Helen Levitt, Aldo van Eyck, Maria Lassnig, Lygia Clark, Richard Hamilton, Marcel Broodthaers, Ed van der Elsken, Nancy Spero, Öyvind Fahlström, Garry Winogrand, Michelangelo Pistoletto, Robert Adams, Hélio Oiticica, James Coleman, Gordon Matta-Clark, Susanne Lafont, William Kentridge, Martin Walde, and many more." Miyoshi, M. 'Radical Art at Documenta X', in 1750:"Horak's selection of artists to exemplify the entangled relationship of film and photography is necessarily idiosyncratic. Rather than attempting an overview or comprehensive history, Horak opts for a close, circumscribed reading of the work of a few individuals who have traversed the two media throughout their careers. The artists selected, Chris Marker, Helmar Lerski, Paul Strand, László Moholy-Nagy, Helen Levitt, Robert Frank, Danny Lyon, and Ed van der Elsken, range from the renowned to the obscure, making the book at once invitingly familiar and provocatively broadening. The subjects of Making Images Move are defined as: 1723:"When Ed van der Elsken rages through Amsterdam's empty streets-those passages of film were shot in the very early morning and are run at high speed-the silence of the city is strikingThe morphology of the city is filmed.

Blackwell Publishing on behalf of The Royal Geographical Society (with the Institute of British Geographers) 1273:"In Paris, this kind of urban roaming was characteristic of Left Bank bohemianism, where the art of drifting was a favorite way of cultivating that feeling of being 'apart together' that Huizinga described as characteristic of play.

Cleverly, this symmetry also means that the volume makes some kind of sense when the pages are flicked from back to front, which is the way that many people naturally ‘read’ photobooks" 1527:"It is also known that van der Elsken was secretly in love with Vali Myers, and followed her for two years with his camera into the most intimate places. Except for a brief romance, it never came to a relationship. Indeed she inspired him as a muse and model to make the roman-a-clef in Saint Germain des Prés." Suermondt, R.
