The works have been selected for their interesting approach to the images and for the way this is articulated in the publication. They deal with aesthetical, sociological and political issues related to photography such as abstraction, image privacy and politics of representation. Through the concept, the choice of format, the treatment of images and their articulation via texts, these artists and publishers explore the many possibilities offered by publishing as an art form.
