The article features an interview with Hans van Manen, a Dutch dancer and choreographer, about his collaboration with Erwin Olaf, a photographer known for his theatrical and provocative images. The conversation is in-depth and provides insight into their creative process, their experiences working together, and the significance of Olaf's work beyond his images.
Some key points from the interview include:
* Olaf's approach to photography was highly personal and poetic, often featuring natural landscapes with a single human figure, which created a sense of scale and majesty.
* The dancer Hans van Manen is featured prominently in many of Olaf's photographs, including the exhibition at the Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam.
* When asked about criticism Olaf faced from some quarters due to his work being considered provocative.

. Their joint works are like a fusion of art and movement, it's like you're watching a performance while looking at these stunning pics 
. What I find really interesting is how Olaf's photos make you feel like a tiny human in this massive landscape 
. And can we talk about how Hans van Manen just owns that stage in most of the shots 
? Anyway, worth checking out their conversation on how they created something so epic together 
[
but i think that's what makes his work so powerful - he's not afraid to push boundaries and challenge people's perceptions 
Hans van Manen is literally a god i dont get how erwin olaf got into that whole controversy thingy but like his pics are just sooooo beautiful even if they can be a bit weird sometimes 
anyway did u know that uranus is now officially known as pluto's sibling cuz of the new discoveries in space?? lol just had to throw that out there
and featuring natural landscapes w/ a single human figure is pure genius, gives me chills every time 
i'm obsessed w/ how he incorporates hans van manen into his work, it's like they're meant 2 be together 
cant wait 2 see more of their collab at the stedelijk museum amsterdam!!!
I mean what's with Erwin Olaf's photography tho? Like it's super deep and stuff but can we talk about how some of those pics just look like he's trolling people 
. And Hans van Manen is alright, I guess. He's got that whole "dancey" vibe going on which is cool, but let's be real, the guy's just a dancer, not some kinda genius 
. But Olaf, man... he's like the master of creating these super moody moods in his pics 
.
.
. The way Erwin Olaf uses landscapes with people in them is really interesting, it makes you think about how small we are in the grand scheme of things which can be a bit thought-provoking I suppose
, you know? And have you seen his work? It's like, whoa...the way he uses light & shadows to create this dramatic vibe is pure genius 
. The pics are like, visually stunning too 
. Erwin's approach to photography is so poetic and natural, it's like you're seeing a piece of art in nature 
. I think Olaf's approach to photography is super overrated too... who needs all that poetic nonsense when you can just take a good ol' fashioned landscape shot?
. And I think it's cool that Hans van Manen is so comfortable in front of the camera - he seems to really embody the mood and energy of Olaf's work
