Since 2014, the Photobook Days have been a natural and important part of Landskrona Fotofestival. This year’s festival is no exception, with a solid programme of events at the festival centre on 6–8 September.
The long-term goal with this focus is to give the photobook a higher status in Sweden and raise the frequency that the photobook appears in media – being reviewed and discussed. As well as giving the photo authors the same status as the literary authors. The Photobook Days includes three days with focus on photobooks, exhibitions, a photobook fair with Swedish and international publishers, book signings, Pecha Kucha, Landskrona Foto & Breadfield Dummy Award, international guest lecturers and publishers who present and talk about their work and more. In this way experience is exchanged between countries and networks are created. This ultimately enriches the discussion about the photobook as a phenomenon and helps to further the evolvement of the field.
