Marc Prüst (Curator photo gallery De Gang and teacher MOME Budapest)
I conduct research into the workings of the photographic industry to understand how and why photographs circulate: why do we see the photographs that we see, in print, on social media, in museums, on billboards, and elsewhere? The project uses the visual economy to look at all types of photography with the aim to describe an overall model of the photographic industry as a whole. This research has taken the form of a PhD trajectory at the University of Groningen.

I curate exhibitions for museums, festivals, and galeries. I edit photo books in close cooperation with photographers. I am the curator of photo gallery ‘De Gang’ in Haarlem, a free-entry non-profit gallery space in the city center. Also, I teach Visual Economy of Art Photography at Moholy Nagy University of Art and Design Photography MA in Budapest.

I have published two books: Tell Your Story, and Edit Your Story.
