Starfighter Photography Prohibited ! Bio 1965 | 20230729 | Michel van der Burg | Miracles•Media | Photography not allowed here in 1965 where I – at the age of 13 – took this low-flying fighter jet picture hiding in the heath on a trip around our summer camp – first year highschool Aloysius College – at the Tranchée in forest and heathland between Weert and Budel in the south of the Netherlands near the border with Belgium. The camera – a Voigtländer Vito camera (no light meter / no rangefinder / fixed lens / viewfinder) – was a 13 birthday gift earlier that year – that I used here for my short first ‘reportage’. @michelvanderburg | TakeNode 9245cb78-da77-4069-879e-74a01b52fdb5

After its inaugural exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum in New York (1), and a European tour (2) at the Saatchi Gallery in London (UK), the Groninger Museum in the Netherlands (3), and next in Germany at the Kunsthalle in Munich, JR: Chronicles is now for the first time in Asia at the LOTTE Museum of Art in Seoul (South Korea).
The INSIDE OUT installation in the JR: Chronicles exhibition is screening our original film on Brussels’ Afghan refugees that was published first online for World Refugee Day June 20th 2016 : Béguinage Refugees Into The Wild (4) . This film wasn’t replaced by the special exhibition edition (with updated credits) we offered (Sep 2019) for the premiere of JR: Chronicles in the Brooklyn Museum. We later did publish that new 4K edition online , entitled “Béguinage Refugees Into The Wild ~ JR: Chronicles Edition” (5).
