The Fotobookfestival Kassel together with its partner Verlag Kettler once again invites all photographers to present their as-yet unpublished photobooks to an international public and eminent experts.
Here is what the Kassel Fotobookfestival has to say:
In 2017 the best 50 books will be shortlisted by a shortlist-jury and will be exhibited at international photo events, amongst others, in Istanbul, Moscow, Madrid, Dublin, Aarhus and Lodz. From these 50 titles, 3 winners will be chosen by an international jury at the ISTANBUL PHOTOBOOK FESTIVAL on 29 April. The winner of the First Prize will be produced and published by our cooperation partner Verlag Kettler, Germany. Second and Third Prize is a book production voucher given by our partner k-books, who specializes in high-quality book productions in small quantities.
The members of our international main jury in Istanbul are: Federica Chiocchetti (Photocaptionist.com), Martin Parr (Bristol), Jason Fulford (J+L Books, ), Aron Mörel (Mörel Books, London), Markus Schaden (The PhotobookMuseum, Cologne), Verlag Kettler (N.N., Dortmund) and Dieter Neubert (Kasseler Fotobookfestival, Kassel).
Who can enter?
Any photographer from around the world who accepts our entry conditions can participate by registering for the competition and submitting an unpublished work as a book. Registrations will be open until 10 April 2017. All self-published books in small print runs or books published through publishing platforms like blurb can be submitted. Only books already published by a publishing house will not be accepted.
Guidelines
We require one copy of a physical printed book of all the entries sent to us by the photographers /authors. Entries can only be registered online. We charge € 34 per entry and book. There is no limit to the number of entries per person. If you would like your book to be returned to you, then we will require a further postage and handling charge during the registration process. Payments can only be made online via our Paypal account during the registration process. Dummies that make the shortlist will be shown during different photo events as announced. Because some of these events take place at the same time, we request two copies of all shortlisted dummies. This second copy must arrive at our Kassel office 10 days after the shortlist has been announced.
