There is so Much to See: Contemporary Photography
From March 27, 2026, Patrick Derom Gallery presents There Is So Much to See, an exhibition exploring how photography became a critical lens through which to navigate the proliferation and complexity of images at the turn of the 21st century.
Spanning works from 1979 to 2016, it brings together nine artists who questioned the status of the image and pushed the medium beyond traditional boundaries — from intimate portraiture to monumental tableaux, from conceptual strategies to cinematic temporality.
Whether through staging, appropriation, monumental scale, or subtle interventions in reality, these artists redefined photography as a space of critical reflection. Despite the diversity of their approaches, these artists share a common ambition: to rethink how images shape perception and meaning. The exhibition features works by Dirk Braeckman, David Claerbout, Rineke Dijkstra, Roe Ethridge, Andreas Gursky, Louise Lawler, Thomas Ruff, Cindy Sherman, and Wolfgang Tillmans.
Open Wednesday to Saturday, 11am–6pm
