Conferences and Photobook Presentations

Images are also meant to be thought about, explained and shared. This edition’s conferences and photobook presentations bring together photographers, editors, researchers and creators to discuss processes, journeys, heritage, publishing and memory, among other topics.

Over several days, projects move beyond the walls and the pages to become conversations. It is an opportunity to hear directly from the voices behind each work and to discover how projects are conceived and developed from very different perspectives.

From artist photobooks to reflections on photographic heritage, through travel experiences and independent publishing: a programme to discover contemporary photography up close.

Free admission until full capacity is reached.
