A, was the first in a series of exhibitions which focused on the hand-made and self-published photobook. Our intention was to showcase a wide range of work, from the short run, the limited edition, to the one off and ephemeral photobook. There was no theme to the exhibition, the only criteria for submissions where that it is important to the artist that the work be viewed as a book – be ready to leaf through some interesting work from international contributers. The show was held at Workflow Studio in Brighton. A Book Show featured work from Joan Alexander, Diana Artus, Gordon Ashbridge, Murray Ballard, Alex Bailey & Helen Flanagan, Julian Baron, Kevin Beck, Pierre Bessard, Pogo Books, Antony Cairns, Margarida Correia, Lawrence Daley, Caitlin Duennebier, Jon Dunning, Ramon Eding, Peter Edwards, Human Endeavour, Dan Epthorp, Jason Evans, Virgilio Ferreira, Peter Gates, Stuart Griffiths, Nicolas Haeni, Yoann Hagnere & Viola Korosi, Andy Heller, Bonifacio Barrio Hijosa, Kenji Hirasawa, Fergus Jordan, Shiho Kito, Josef Konczak/Martin Seeds, Espen R Krukhaug, Jason Larkin, Queenie Rosita Law, Chris Linaker, John Maclean, Louise Maher, Bertil Nilsson, Simon Norfolk, Preston is my Paris, Bruno Quinquet, Misha de Ridder, Nick Rochowski, Davi Russo, William Sadowski, Kayne Li Lui Sang, Maria Serrano, Amelia Shepherd, Jess Smith, Ewen Spencer, Lucy Steggals, Aya Takada, Mikel Telleria, Megan Turner-Jones, Harry Watts
