Roy Kahmann
Roy Kahmann is one of the biggest representatives in the Dutch photography world. His passion for photography started in the late 1970s, after buying his first print from Ed van der Elsken, while they were collaborating on the book ‘Amsterdam’. From that moment on, his personal collection has grown significantly. After working in the advertising business for many years in 2005, Kahmann started the eponymous Kahmann Gallery and launched the first issue of GUP Magazine. Driven by his great passion for photography, Kahmann initiated the art fair Haute Photographie and most recently Haute Auctions.
