Leipzig Photo Festival – Open Call 2024

The third Leipzig Photobook Festival is dedicated to the topic of “Protest”. The topic will be researched from different perspectives in exhibitions of historical and contemporary books, a panel discussion and short presentations.
In addition, we will again be organizing panel discussions, presentations, exhibitions, book presentations, portfolio reviews, a speed dating event and a get-together.

Luciano Zuccaccia has been interested in photobooks as a collector and researcher for several years and has built up the specialized collection “Protest in Photobook”. He is a curator for publishers and acts as a juror for photobook competitions.
We are exhibiting a selection of 25 historical and contemporary photobooks from the “Protest in Photobook” collection, which show protest movements in Iran.
From rare pamphlets and leaflets to propaganda material and artistic and unique photo books. Luciano Zuccaccia will be present and available for questions and discussions.
