Why an exhibition of "bad" photographs?
Photographs become bad when you decide they are; when you tear them up, throw them away, or lose them. Bad photographs don´t fit in the usual aesthetic patterns, but that´s exactly why they are interesting. They can open new perspectives to the world around you and help you break away from the old way of seeing things.

Why accept photographs from anyone?
Let´s look at the world through the eyes of Mr. and Mrs. Average, the eyes of a non-professional. Their way of dealing with the camera is not like that of Ansel Adams; it´s fresher, unspoiled. 
By the way, we have always been interested in how the living room of the "Averages" looks like. We aren't able to buy a peek into these areas, so we have to be creative. We ask others to send us their photographs or we beg people coming out of the photoshop to give us the worst picture they have. We call this "TAKING PHOTOGRAPHS WITHOUT"; in this case WITHOUT A CAMERA. 

Why photographs by accident?
By not looking through the view-finder of our camera a new perspective with an even greater element of surprise comes alive. The content of the picture is chosen more or less by accident. We are "TAKING PHOTOGRAPHS WITHOUT", in this case WITHOUT A VIEW-FINDER. 
The camera is more honest without the photographer behind it. Looking at these photographs you will find a sort of unfiltered reality. You'll be amazed by the new perspectives and aesthetic insights that open before your eyes. 

Why found photographs?
Another way of TAKING PHOTOGRAPHS WITHOUT A CAMREA AND WITHOUT A VIEW-FINDER is either to find photographs yourself (on the street, in photo boothes etc.) or have others send you the photos they've found. Finding photographs always happens by accident. Found photographs are taken by non-professionals in most cases and they are bad in almost every case!
