In cooperation with Blurb, this year we searched for the best contemporary photobooks within our audience, via our international call for submissions. The best books will be printed and they will be available for all to see at the Book and Magazine Fair.
From the hundreds of submissions, we selected 20 great Blurb contemporary photography books to highlight at the festival. This is a great opportunity to showcase your outstanding Blurb photography book at PhotoIreland. This year, the festival kicks off July 1st and celebrates its first Book & Magazine Fair, with a special focus on photobooks. You’ll enjoy events at dozens of venues around the city, including Blurb bookmaking seminars.
The selected 20 books will travel to the Belfast Photo Festival in August.
