Beach Portraits (solo show)
Städel Museum, Frankfurt am Main
13 December 2024 – 18 May 2025
The Städel Museum will present 27 of Rineke Dijkstra’s works in a solo exhibition, including 21 images from her ‘Beach Portraits’ series which drew international attention, establishing her as one of the most influential photographers in contemporary art. Works from the ‘Streets’ series and a self-portrait of the artist are also featured in the exhibition. What at first appear to be snapshots are in fact carefully composed photographs captured within a search for the essence of human existence. It is with these sensitive encounters that the artist raises questions about authenticity and truthfulness in portrait photography.

Still – Moving. Portraits 1992–2024 (solo show)
Berlinische Galerie, Berlin
8 November 2024 – 10 February 2025
The Berlinische Galerie will host a solo show of work by Rineke Dijkstra. Giving an overview of her practice from the 1990s to the present-day, Still – Moving explores the theme of ‘transition’, featuring series such as ‘New Mothers’, ‘Bullfighters’ and ‘Almerisa’. ‘The Park series’, partly created in Berlin’s Tiergarten, will also be presented, alongside never-before-seen photographs from the artist’s archives. Since the early 1990s, Dijkstra has produced an impressive body of photographic and video work, offering a contemporary take on the genre of portraiture. By isolating her subjects from their context and focusing on subtle glimmers of individuality, Dijkstra encourages viewers to look closely at people in various different stages of transition.

The Krazy House (video installation)
Espace Louis Vuitton, Munich
3 May – 14 September 2024
For its 15th exhibition within the framework of the Hors-les-murs programme of the Fondation Louis Vuitton, the Espace Louis Vuitton München presents The Krazy House by Rineke Dijkstra. Created in 2009, Dijkstra’s video installation continues her visual explorations into adolescence. For this piece, the artist asked five young people to dance to their favourite music in a special studio set up on the floor of a Liverpool nightclub. Engulfed in the dim, hushed, blueish environment, the dancers move before a plain white background, each lost in their own image. The artist has reimagined the display of the installation specifically for Espace Louis Vuitton München, shedding new light on this seminal artwork.
