THE INTERVIEW

presented by Véronique Prugnaud

Independent photo publishing : a stimulating sector for publishers and emerging photographers?

Restricted market, independent photo publishing is based on an fluctuating economic model. Despite its fragility, new innovative publishers rise and more emerging artists place the photobook at the heart of their artistic practice.

Guests for the Interview, publishers and artists, will share their experiences and thoughts on how to open the perspectives of a sector that is as much ambivalent that it is attractive.

Guests : 

Adele Gratacos, artist exhibited at la MEP

Rebekka Deubner, artist and publisher – Le Rayon Vert

Sonia Berger, independent publisher – Dalpine (via Skype)

Inès de Bordas, founder and publisher – Silence Editions
