Paris mortel

In 1956 Johan van der Keuken (1938-2001) moved from Amsterdam to Paris to study at the School of Film. There Van der Keuken took thousands of photographs, the city acting as a background to his feelings of desolation. In 1963 a selection of these were published in a book called 'Paris Mortel'. The complete book, including the original dummy Van der Keuken made and a few previously unpublished photographs are collected in this publication.
