From the stapled fanzine assembled in a student bedroom to the traditionally printed photobook, these publications not only reshape our understanding of the medium, but offer exciting and sometimes radical ideas. Ceschel will also discuss his project Self Publish, Be Happy and present his latest community-lead project Self Publish, Be Naughty, a collection of intimate, flirtatious, sexual, raw and explicit images laid bare in a book.
Bruno Ceschel is a lecturer in Photography at the University of Westminster, London, a writer and a curator. He is the founder of Self Publish, Be Happy, a project that aims to promote and study self-published photobooks. In 2010 Self Publish, Be Happy organised events at The Photographers’ Gallery, ICA and Whitechapel Gallery in London, at Flash Forward Festival in Toronto and Boston and at Printed Matter in NYC. Previously Ceschel worked on the 2008 edition of the Brighton Photo Biennial, as book editor at Chris Boot Ltd, and was associate and creative editor at Colors magazine. Ceschel is currently working on his first book titled Dissident Desires – Identities in Contemporary Photography, which will be published by Aperture in 2012.

This quarterly publication launched a teaser ‘preview’ issue ‘hold your breath’ in July 2010 to coincide with the first annual PhotoIreland Festival.
SuperMassiveBlackHole is Ireland’s leading international online photography magazine. It is available to download for free as a PDF in both screen and print resolution. Born in 2009, SuperMassiveBlackHole is dedicated to the photographic imagery resulting from the time-based processes found in many interdisciplinary art practices today.
Source is published by Photo Works North, an organisation first constituted in the summer of 1991. The purpose of this organisation was to promote photography in Northern Ireland with its principle objective being the starting of a photography gallery in Belfast.
The last of the organisation’s aims was the publication of a newsletter. This newsletter was published for the first time in the Summer of 1992. It was eight pages, black and white throughout, and given out for free. The organisation raised money through a print lottery; tickets were sold for a draw for donated photographs including work by Martin Parr, Willie Doherty and a self-portrait by Lee Friedlander, produced in a photobooth in Wales and donated by a member of the committee.
Source grew in size and was soon on sale in newsagents. By the fourth issue in 1995 an office had been acquired in the centre of Belfast and financial assistance was provided by the Arts Council of Northern Ireland for the production of the magazine and its associated programme.
At this stage all work for the magazine was done voluntarily. In 1996 Proteus – a European Union funding organisation – offered a grant that funded the positions of an editor, administrator and education officer. This funding continued until 1998. At the end of 1998 Source relaunched with a new landscape format, a redesigned layout, more review content and more colour reproductions. This time the funding was supplied by the Arts Council lottery fund.
Since 1998 Source has grown in size and modified its design but is still a landscape format magazine with a mix of written content and portfolios of images. Since 1999 Source has also organised exhibitions and talks in Belfast and toured exhibitions of Irish artists to galleries in Europe. In 2000 the old office was redeveloped and Source moved into a (semi-derelict) warehouse space. It is hoped that this is a temporary home (very cold in winter, too hot in summer) and that in 2002 Source will move once again, this time to a more permenant location.

Every Thursday lunchtime, artist Members of the RHA offer free guided tours of the Annual Exhibition. This will represent a wonderful opportunity to come and see the exhibition, looking at a selection of the works in the show as chosen by each Member. Unlike average gallery tours, this allows a personal insight into the exhibition from the artists’ perspective. The Amelia Stein RHA tour will take place on Thursday 7th July at 1.10pm. Booking is not required but we do expect the tours to be popular so would advise interested persons to arrive on time
