For this launch of her book "What happened in Rotterdam" author Charlie Koolhaas, together with curator Amal Alhaag (from cultural platform Metro 54 <A HREF="http://www.metro54.nl" TARGET="_blank" DATA-MSYS-CLICKTRACK="0" REL="nofollow noopener noreferrer">www.metro54.nl</A>) will discuss the themes of this personal story about life in Rotterdam. 
Along with invited guests, local experts and members of the audience they will have a conversation about Rotterdam's social character with regard to its many diverse influences, to look at how the city both appropriates outside cultures and creates it's own uniquely hybridised urbanity.

The book tells the story of a previously bleak and bombed harbour city that has benefitted from its ‘accidental’ erasure by transforming itself into what is now being called one of the coolest places on the planet. Combining photography and writing Charlie Koolhaas uncovers the irrepressible creativity of the Netherlands most diverse city - where life casually reveals the undeniable vitality, successes and failures of Europe’s multi-cultural project at a moment in history when it’s under siege
