“Chinatown,” directed by Roman Polanski, will be introduced by photographer Brad Temkin, whose work is featured in the FotoFest Biennial 2024 central exhibition, “Critical Geography” (on view through April 21).

Led by author, educator, advisor, and photobook expert Mary Virginia Swanson and Chief of Libraries and Archives at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, Jon Evans, Publish Your Photography Book presents to photographers a deep breadth of information and insights about publishing photobooks, whether it be via a major publishing house, a small independent press or self-publishing, machine-made or artist-made books. International photobook professionals and artists will present the audience with behind-the-scenes knowledge about the trajectory of creating a photobook, from pitch to press and beyond, giving invaluable advice on how to shepherd a project from concept through production choices and ultimately to placement in private and institutional collections.

The morning introduction and publisher’s panel, led by Swanson, provides an overview of the photobook development process and the many potential avenues for bringing projects to the book form. Presenting publishers include Tiffany Jones (Overlapse), Dewi Lewis (Dewi Lewis Publishing) and David Chickey (Radius Books).

Following an on-site lunch, the afternoon session begins with Jon Evans, Chief of Libraries & Archives at the Museum of Fine Arts, Houston, outlining the role of an art research library and their collecting strategies. Evans will then be in conversation with artists Alejandro Cartagena, Barbara Ciurej & Lindsay Lochman, and Keliy Anderson-Staley, whose self-published photobooks have recently been acquired by the Hirsch Library at the MFAH, followed by an audience Q&A.

Finally, the audience will gain insights into publishing one’s work as Alexa Becker, Freelance Representative for Kehrer Verlag, and photographic artist Aimee McCrory discuss the publishing journey towards McCrory’s first book, the recently published Rollercoaster: Scenes from a Marriage (Kehrer Verlag, 2024)

This event comes on the heels of the greatly expanded third edition of Swanson's publication of the same name, Publish Your Photography Book, (Radius Books, 2023) which she co-authored with Darius D. Himes, International Head of Photographs, Christie's.

Tickets ($125) available here. On-site lunch is included.

A free parking lot is available on the north side of Silver Street Studios, accessible from Edwards Street at White Street and from Silver Street at Bingham Street.

On February 29 at 12 noon (EST), AIPAD Talks will present a conversation between photographer Barbara Bosworth and Barbara Tannenbaum, curator of photography at the Cleveland Museum of Art, via Zoom. The two will tour Bosworth’s exhibition Sun Light Moon Shadow, on view at the museum through June 30, which includes nine monumental color images of the sky and celestial bodies and six more intimately scaled black-and-white photographs. The photographs on view—of a crescent moon, the light from a lunar eclipse, or an expanse of clouds, to name a few—were inspired by Bosworth’s nighttime walks with her father when she was a child and they would gaze up at the sky.
