Photo Book Market on Refshaleøen

Do you love getting your hands on a beautiful photo book? Immersing yourself in a unique photographic narrative? Or when the experience of photography, book craftsmanship and aesthetics just comes together in a unique way? Then join us at Copenhagen Photo Festival's photo book market on 11 June between 11 am-4 pm at the Festival Center on Refshaleøen.

Within photography, there is a long tradition of not only showing photographs mounted in glass and frame, but also in book form. Here the photographic narratives get a special tactile narrativity - as if the narratives live right there in your hands.

Calling all photo enthusiasts and book aficionados

At this year's festival, we are therefore particularly pleased that we can open the doors to the photo book market on 11 June from 11-16. Here, photo enthusiasts, book aficionados and everyone with a curious heart can experience and buy photo books from some of the most passionate photo book publishers on the Danish photo scene. There will be ample opportunity to meet and talk with the publishers and shops that both sell and publish photo books, and who have a unique knowledge of the photo book tradition and this particular form of expression.

Independent publishers

The participating photo books publishers have a commitment to photo books in common. The publications represent independent photographic works. The coherence of the image series helps to tell the stories and narratives that give the observer the opportunity to immerse themselves in the photograph.

The participating photo actors and publishers are:

Disko Bay

Roulette Russe

Space Poetry

Fragment Photo Books

At Last Books

Magazine Katalog

Brask Publications

Blankt Papir Press

NW Gallery

Atla Platform

Tira Books

Bladr

Breadfield

Odder Books and Music (Vintage Photo Books)

Fotobogmarked på Refshaleøen

Bliver du også lidt gladere, når du får fingre i en smuk fotobog? Når du kan fordybe dig i en unik fotografisk fortælling? Eller når oplevelsen af fotografi, boghåndværk og æstetik går op i en højere enhed? Så kom forbi Copenhagen Photo Festivals fotobogmarked den 11. juni mellem 11-16 på Refshaleøen.

Indenfor fotografi er der en lang tradition for ikke blot at vise fotografiet i glas og ramme, men også i bogform. Her får de fotografiske fortællinger en særlig nærhed og taktil narrativitet – fortællingerne lever lige der mellem hænderne på én.

For fotoentusiaster og bogelskere

På årets festival er vi derfor særligt glade for, at vi kan åbne dørene til fotobogsmarked den 11. juni fra 11-16. Her har både fotoentusiaster, bogelskere og alle andre interesserede opleve og købe fotobøger fra nogle af de mest passionerede fotobogforlag på den danske fotoscene. Der vil være rig lejlighed til at møde og tale med de forlag og butikker, der

Selvstændige fotobogsaktører

både forhandler og udgiver fotobøger, og som har en unik viden omkring fotobogstraditionen og udtryksformen. De medvirkende forlag og fotoaktører har et fælles engagement for fotobøger. Udgivelserne repræsenterer selvstændige fotografiske værker. Sammenhængen i billedserierne er med til at fortælle de historier og narrativer, der giver iagttageren mulighed for at fordybe sig i fotografiet.

De medvirkende fotoaktører og -forlag er:

Disko Bay

Roulette Russe

Space Poetry

Fragment Photo Books

At Last Books

Magazine Katalog

Brask Publications
