Few Loving Voices
Peter Martens (1937-1992), a legendary Dutch street photographer, left behind one of the most fearless photographic oeuvres of the last century. Until shortly before his death he worked on the composition of two books featuring the best of his complete works: 'Few Loving Voices' and 'American Testimony'. These two books are finally being published posthumously. Martens edited both publications in a sequence that leaves you dumbfounded and guessing for his reasons. His photography is a secret, not just this or that single image, but his entire body of work. It raises compelling questions about the world we live in.
Few loving voices
Selectie uit het oeuvre van de Nederlandse fotojournalist Peter Martens (1937-1992), waarin hij verslag doet van alledaagse ellende in veel wereldsteden.
American Testimony
Dutch photographer Peter Martens (1937-1992) was a versatile street photographer. His way of working was inspired by the long American tradition of engaged and personal documentary photography, but he went one step further and developed into a radical photographer who took a stand for the disadvantaged and outcast. Peter Martens left an oeuvre that is not easily approachable, because it touches upon the unspeakable. Until shortly before his death, he worked on the composition of two books featuring the best of his complete oeuvre. The dummies he assembled and over 400 prints he selected layered ever since in the archive of the Nederlands Fotomuseum. Now these two books, 'Few Loving Voices' and 'American Testimony', are finally being published posthumously. The latter is accompanied by a text of Dutch writer Renate Dorrestein, who worked with Martens during her career as journalist.
