1 WHAT IS THE PHOTOBOOK? The only publication dedicated to the consideration of the photobook. With a focus on the best photography books being published from coffee-table books to handmade artists editions The PhotoBook Review is a platform for accessible critical writing about the current state of photography in print, and the art of photobook publishing as a whole. Published twice yearly, in the spring and fall, The PhotoBook Review is distributed at no extra charge to Aperture magazine subscribers, at Paris Photo, and at other art- and photobook-focused festivals and events. WHO IS THE PHOTOBOOK FOR? The PhotoBook Review is for everyone interested in photography, as well as those with an established interest in the contemporary photobook. Designed to serve all producers and lovers of photobooks, The PhotoBook Review speaks to everyone from collectors to sellers, browsers to borrowers, publishers to photographers, designers to authors. WHO IS BEHIND THE PHOTOBOOK? The PhotoBook Review is an initiative from the not-for-profit Aperture Foundation, one of the oldest continuously active publishers and supporters of photography. It continues Aperture s tradition of promoting dialogue and great writing about the medium. Dedicated to the growing conversation about the photobook

2 CIRCULATION & DISTRIBUTION SPRING 25,000 Aperture magazine subscribers distributed with the Summer issue Art fairs such as: Expo Chicago, LOOK3 Festival of the Photograph, NY Art Book Fair, Paris Photo Los Angeles Aperture Gallery and Bookstore Distribution partners The PhotoBook Review fills a void in the current media environment. While there are several international venues for literary book reviews, very few consistently review artists books, let alone photobooks specifically. Of all 100 titles included in the 2010 New York Times list of Notable Books, only two were illustrated. While the number of photobook publishers is growing and there is incredible innovation taking place in this sector of the field, credible, authoritative resources for commentary and contextualization are few and far between. The PhotoBook Review is that platform. Regular features include book reviews, in-depth opinion pieces, bestseller lists, artists selections, publisher spotlights, and interviews with photographers, book collectors, designers, and more. Every issue will have a notable Guest Editor from the field. PUBLISHER: Lesley A. Martin PAST GUEST EDITORS INCLUDE: Charlotte Cotton, Joan Fontcuberta, Darius Himes, Jeffrey Ladd, Markus Schaden CONTRIBUTING EDITORS: Chris Boot, Julien Frydman FALL 33,000 Aperture magazine subscribers distributed with the Winter issue Paris Photo Le Bal Books Additional art fairs such as: the Armory Show, Frieze New York, LA Art Book Fair Aperture Gallery and Bookstore Distribution partners PREVIOUS DISTRIBUTION PARTNERS INCLUDE: School of Visual Arts, New York; Cleveland Museum of Art; Fotobookfestival, Kassel, Germany; Milan Image Art Fair EDITORIAL THE PHOTOBOOK
