In this episode of the Potloodcast, Prof. Dr. Emilie Sitzia tells the story about her fascination for the synergy between word and image. Since 2017, she holds the Special Chair of Illustration at the University of Amsterdam, established by the Fiep Westendorp Foundation. Emilie is co-curator of the current exhibition ‘Trailblazers: 20th century illustrators and activism’.
Using five previously selected images, she guides us through images that have shaped her life.
