Paradox

Over Paradox

Paradox develops projects around contemporary issues with documentary authors: photographers, filmmakers, visual artists, writers and researchers. Since 1993 the non-profit has produced over 60 distinctive activities, travelling to some 120 venues worldwide. Among the projects realized are Maydan - Hundred Portraits by artist Emeric Lhuisset, Go No Go with photographs by Ad van Denderen and The Last Days of Shishmaref with filmmaker Jan Louter and photographer Dana Lixenberg. Within these projects we experiment explicitly with multimedia forms of presentation, and the interaction between different disciplines (photography, film, audio, writing) as well as platforms (exhibitions, websites, books, DVDs, tablet Apps and educational programmes). Our main goal is to reach a wide audience without losing the nuances that the addressed social issues require. This is the main reason behind our multiplatform strategy: one reaches a different audience with a diversity of platforms. But the synergy between different media as well as platforms also creates new experiences for an audience, raising questions in unexpected ways. Furthermore it challenges the notions and conventions around the presentation of (photographic) material leading to experiments mixing of old and new technology, media and platforms. Paradox seeks partners in realizing these kind of projects, in particular publishers, designers and partner institutions in the Netherlands and abroad. Exhibitions are created in close collaboration with museums and as a result travel to a broad variety of institutions, both nationally and internationally. Venues in which Paradox projects have been shown include FOAM (NL), Photographers Gallery (UK), Three Shadows Photography Art Center (CN) and Le Centquatre (FR).
