The photo book market in Germany and Europe is booming
more than ever before. Digitisation of photography and
printing has brought about democratisation and eased the
access. Today, both the production of photographic work
and photo books in small print runs are possible with a low
budget. Photo books and photo magazines on newsprint are
representative for these new possibilities resulting from digitisation. The project founded and curated by Felix Koltermann focuses on how newsprint
photo book projects became an individual genre in which
the advantages of different media are combined. Part of the
project is a Collection of Newsprint Photobooks which consists of about 250 pieces and which is growing steadily.
