After four successful live editions and two editions online since 2015, our fifth '2and3D Photography - Practice & Prophecies' will be held in the Rijksmuseum, Amsterdam from 20 to 22 May 2026.

Conference themes

The central theme of this fifth edition of 2and3D Photography is our endangered heritage. In these turbulent times, when war, violence, and the climate crisis threaten our culture and heritage, our role has become even more crucial. Our daily work involves documenting museum collections, archives, manuscripts, and historic architecture. We document it to share with the public, for scientific research, and for future generations. In doing so, we also ensure that all this image material is accessible and properly preserved for future generations.
