Our archive is now about 4000 photobooks which for the last few years have been moved from storage to storage not being looked at. It felt wrong to have this amazing collection and no one seeing it, our dream was always to have a library space. So when our friends at Biblioteka gave us the opportunity to let them take the archive and set up a public space alongside other collections we could not have been happier. Our whole archive is now safely at the Biblioteka space (Unit 6, Bellenden Road Business Centre, London) where they will be hosting an opening event on the 7th of October. We will continue to organise shows and add books to the archive. When: 7th of October 2021 Where: Unit 6, Bellenden Road Business Centre, SE15 4RF, London What time: 4pm onwards Webpage: www.bibliotheca.webcam

Thank you to every one who submitted. Supported by International Photography Symposium NIDA. Meeting Photography is one of the longest existing events in Lithuania for professional photographers. First symposium (then seminar) took place in 1973. With few brakes it exists until today. From the very beginning of the event there was always the aim to meet, to exchange ideas, to create, to involve local community. It remains actual today. In present we are constantly searching for new forms, how to grow the reach of culture, educational processes, how to foster diversity in photographic expression and informal education. In more than forty years International Photography Symposium NIDA. Meeting Photography formed few important generations of creative and critical minds. Every year this event attracts not just Lithuanian but more and more foreign audience. We seek NIDA to become one important place in the context of European photography events actualizing processes in the region.

Brighton Photo Biennial 2012 OCTOBER 6, 2012 TO NOVEMBER 4, 2012 We have been working with Brighton Photo Biennial this year to produce an exhibition of Photobooks reflecting this years theme: Agents of Change: Photography and the Politics of Space. Each photobook project will focus in some way on the diverse image cultures resulting from recent efforts to reimagine urban spaces through their occupation. We set out to probe at the distinctions that separate art and activism, and pose questions as to whether – and in what circumstances – images can serve as agents of social and political change.

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.
