What is The PhotoBook Review? The only publication of its kind dedicated to the consideration of the photobook. With a focus on the best photography books being published—from coffee-table books to handmade artists’ editions—The PhotoBook Review is a platform for accessible critical writing about the current state of photography in print, and the art of photobook publishing as a whole.

Published twice yearly, in the spring and fall, The PhotoBook Review is distributed at no extra charge to Aperture magazine subscribers, at Paris Photo, and at other art- and photobook-focused festivals and events. Who is The PhotoBook Review for? The PhotoBook Review is for everyone interested in photography, as well as those with an established interest in the contemporary photobook. Designed to serve all producers and lovers of photobooks, The PhotoBook Review speaks to everyone from collectors to sellers, browsers to borrowers, publishers to photographers, designers to authors.

Who is behindThe PhotoBook Review? The PhotoBook Review is an initiative from the not-for-profit Aperture Foundation, one of the oldest continuously active publishers and supporters of photography. It continues Aperture’s tradition of promoting dialogue and great writing about the medium. The PhotoBook Review was created in partnership with Paris Photo, the international fine-art photography fair, in support of the annual Paris Photo–Aperture Foundation PhotoBook Awards.

Dedicated to the growing conversation about the photobook

EditorialThe PhotoBook Review fills a void in the current media environment. While there are several international venues for literary book reviews, very few consistently review artists’ books, let alone photobooks specifically. Of all 100 titles included in the 2010 New York Times list of Notable Books, only two were illustrated.

While the number of photobook publishers is growing and there is incredible innovation taking place in this sector of the field, credible, authoritative resources for commentary and contextualization are few and far between. The PhotoBook Review is that platform.

Regular features include book reviews, in-depth opinion pieces, artists’ selections, publisher spotlights, and interviews with photographers, book collectors, designers, and more.

Issues frequently have a notable Guest Editor from the field.
