The SHIFTING FOCUS PHOTOBOOK MARKET is part of the SHIFTING FOCUS PHOTO EXHIBITION project and will focus on books from independent publishers and artists, as well as exclusive rare photo books. There will also be a programme with lectures about self-publishing and art of photo book-making today, as well as book signings.

The venue chosen for the PHOTOBOOK MARKET is the Projekträume of the renowned Kunsquartier Bethanien, an exhibition space for contemporary art with focus on current social and cultural issues. With its 250sqm facilities this former hospital is the perfect host for the PHOTOBOOK MARKET, introducing the undiscovered and 'up and coming' of the photobooks.
