Now on view: Witnessing Life by Co Rentmeester

Witnessing Life reflects on Rentmeester’s unique ability to transcend genres, leaving a profound impact on journalistic, commercial and artistic photography. From his compelling war photography of the Vietnam war and the Watts riots, his wildlife photography to his groundbreaking Malboro Man campaigns, that redefined the visual identity of America. This exhibition not only celebrates Rentmeester’s remarkable career but also marks his symbolic return to Amsterdam, the city where his journey as a photographer began.

Publication & print
Together with publisher Lannoo, Foam presents Witnessing Life, a special book accompanying the exhibition. Both the publication and the iconic Jumpman photograph are available online and in-store at the museum.

Become a Foam Talent

The Foam Talent Call is in full swing! If you’re developing your own artistic voice in photography, now is the time to share it. Selected Talents are featured in Foam Magazine’s Talent Issue, take part in the international Foam Talent Programme, and gain exposure across Foam exhibitions and platforms worldwide.

The public call specifically addresses emerging artists: someone in an early stage of their career, who doesn’t yet have an established reputation but is developing work with a distinct style.

Join the new wave of image-makers. Submissions are open until
9 November 2025.

Join us for Museumnacht 2025

Join us during Museumnacht (museum night) and experience an evening full of art, creativity, and music. Together with Afrovism, Foam invites you to explore a new way of looking at art and to ask: what does it mean to represent yourself in a world where image formation has become all-important?

In a series of workshops, installations, and performances, young creators explore the relationship between identity, representation, and image. From collage workshops with Sisters Janssen to jewelry making with Goldiie, a photobooth inspired by the work of Co Rentmeester, and vinyl listening sessions with 1.06 Library. This Museumnacht has everything to spark curiosity, creativity, and connection.
