When the City Archives invited Dana Lixenberg to do a photo project on Amsterdam, she chose to focus on De Wallen, a neighbourhood she has a personal history with. From 2021 to 2025 Lixenberg became part of the microenvironment that is De Wallen: its narrow alleyways, canals, daily rhythm. She observed life there closely, with an eye for detail and without judgment. The result is a series of intimate black-and-white portraits and monumental interior photographs in colour, a video installation and a book.

The De Wallen exhibition and publication present a portrait of this unique neighbourhood in the historic city centre as captured for our time.
