2025 Photobook Program includes four exhibitions, the best breakfast in town and the Photographic Publication of the Year award. This year, the exhibitions will be a wide cross-section of the publishing scene from all over the world, reflecting different chronological times. A special highlight will be given to an overview of the history of protests, where each of the selected books sheds light on more subject areas, giving new life to forgotten publications and bringing to light unknown stories of local protests. Another photobook section dives into the history and daily life of Palestinians, extending it to the broader context of the Israeli aggression on Gaza. In addition, we present a stack of books by one of the most creative and humorous authors on the American book scene. Here’s the program of what will take place in Lodz in less than a month.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

EXHIBITIONS<\/h4>\n\n\n\n

<\/p>\n\n\n\n

_ The exhibition Stack of Books<\/em><\/strong> is the result of the Fotofestiwal\u2019s invitation to Jason Fulford. The artist, who this year is also showcasing at the YMCA swimming pool (exhibition Lots Of Lots<\/em><\/mark><\/a>) selected over 10 books of which he is the author or editor. The titular stack refers to the artist’s working method, where his camera accompanies him on every journey, and subsequent books are the result of his editorial genius. Fulford skillfully combines archival photographs, short texts, and his own photographs, constructing engaging narratives. More information on the exhibition here<\/mark><\/a>.<\/mark><\/p>\n\n\n\n

_ Dummy Award<\/em> 2025<\/strong> is an international photobook\u00a0 competition for the best unpublished photobook mock-up of the year and one of the most prestigious and recognized photo book brands in the Western world.

The books on display  are from the comprehensive Protestinphotobook collection<\/mark><\/a>, curated by Luciano Zuccaccia.
