Dutch Photographer Hans van der Kamp started working in a photo lab at age 18. In the evenings he irregularly visited an art academy where photography was still an issue of fierce debate. Was this ‘new’ technique considered to be art or even fine art? These discussions left a huge mark on his early works. Soon however he distanced himself from his education and returned to his first love: straight forward black & white photography with a lot of emphasis on portraiture.

Extra info
In 1996 Hans van der Kamp founded AMEA // World Museum of Erotic Art. This site was originally meant as a pastiche on existing sex sites, but due to fast increasing popularity on the web, the site became one of the larger and more serious sites about erotic art on the web. Up to this day Van der Kamp is acting as the main curator of the on line museum.

In this capacity he also acts as juror for many contests such as Erotic Signature (US), Photokonkurs.com (RU), 12″ of Sin (US) and many others.
