Celebrating a “Month of Photo Book“ starting in January, the Galeri Foto Jurnalistik Antara turned into a centre of photo book art and offers a wide range of activities.
Markus Schaden and Wolfgang Zurborn were the special guests at this event. They were holding the “Photo Book Master Class Jakarta”, working with the participating photographers on developing their own projects. In the frame of a portfolio review they got an wider overview on contemporary Indonesian photography. Lectures about the photobook and different strategies of editing by Oscar Motuloh, Markus Schaden and Wolfgang Zurborn were reflecting historical and contemporary questions about this important medium. The future of photo book markets and the challenges of e-distribution were the main issues in a public discussion.
