    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.

    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.
