    Don't go in the magazine gallery unless you want to subscribe. Foam magazine will suck you right in with its rich production and seductive photos.

    Don't waste your money! There are sooo many beautiful galleries and examples of local photography everywhere. Either FOAM need to reduce the price or increase the product on view!!!

    The main collection "America by Car" is a bit boring. Interesting concept, but all pictures are very similar.

    Have fun looking at pictures at FOAM. Rest your feet with a cappuccino in the café afterwards and pick one of the many photo magazines to leaf through.
