2019 DAY OF PHOTO BOOKS

Come to Ft. Mason Pier 2, on the edge of San Francisco Bay for an amazing gathering of artists and small-press publishers that work with photography and the medium of the hand-made or printed book.

There will be more than 30 dynamic artists showing their new releases and special projects.   A series of informal presentations and conversations will run throughout the day addressing concepts, the process of making, why the book form, experiences with publishing and production, getting the message out, creative ideas and more.

2017 PHOTO BOOKS TODAY | SYMPOSIUM II

Photographers have more options than ever before for presenting their work as a book – and meanwhile the notion of the photo book itself is changing, no longer bound by the limitations of the traditional monograph. There is a burgeoning market for photography in book form, with many new publishers, dealers, and gallery imprints serving a rapidly growing number of collectors. This symposium will address several issues of value to photographers, and to anyone interested in photo books, as photographers, designers, publishers, curators, and collectors share their experiences and insights.
