‘Dutch Waterworks Worldwide’ chronicles architecture and landscape photographer Luuk Kramer’s journey around the world to find waterworks built by Dutch engineers between the 16th century and today. From Polish polders to dikes and dams in Japan, from canals in Brazil to a small lock in Suriname, the Dutch brought knowledge gleaned from centuries of experience with living in a delta, land reclamation, and catastrophic floods. Arriving with colonising forces or invited by local governments, the Dutch left varied legacies and perspectives on their contributions and roles. In interviews and essays by local experts, the book presents a collection of shared global water heritage.
