ABOUT THE JUROR
Bill Kouwenhoven, International Editor of Hotshoe magazine, has brought an independent perspective to photography criticism for more than 15 years in publications such as Photo Metro where he was editor from 1996-2001 and Sf Camerawork where he curated the 25th anniversary show in 1997. Since moving to Berlin in 2002, he has also been a frequent contributor to such varied publications as Afterimage, Aperture, the British Journal of Photography, European Photography, and Photonews as well as contributing to monographs as varied as Ferit Kuyas’s City of Ambition (Schilt Publishing, 2009) on Chongking and the Yangtze River and a catalogue of contemporary Spanish Photography and Video Art, Nuevas Historias (Hatje Cantz, 2008). He lives and works in Berlin and New York. Love Shack is his first venture into the broader field of contemporary art.
