Hans Eijkelboom

Hans Eijkelboom was included in a 1971 group show with Joseph Beuys, Ed Ruscha, and Douglas Huebler. Since then, he has produced over twenty-five books, many of them self-published.

Artist statement "From August 2005 to June 2006 I bought 32 new outfits for myself, initially once a week, later once a fortnight. The only criterion for my choice was the price: it couldn't be higher than 10 Euros" Hans Eijkelboom.

I like these images as they capture a period in time of the early 2000s and the fashion styles of the time which creates a capsule of history. Furthermore, I like these images as they are nonchalant and casual as if he took just one photo for each outfit without trying to make it an amazing photo.
