Foam is the place for photography in all its guises: from documentary to fashion, from contemporary to historical. A museum with an international allure. In addition to large exhibitions presenting the work of (world) famous photographers, Foam also shows young talent in smaller, rapidly changing exhibitions. At least three different exhibitions are always on view at the same time.
In the special, series of canal houses strung together on Keizersgracht, you will find a great bookstore and a cozy café. There are regular events, special tours, lectures and discussions, films and other activities.
