Holiday Book Bazaar Recap
On December 14, Aperture held its Holiday Book Bazaar in the Aperture Gallery and Bookstore. This year’s Bazaar was attended by distinguished photobook publishers and distributors such as Artbook/D.A.P., bookdummypress, Conveyor Arts, Coral Press Arts, Empty Stretch, Kurt Boone Books, MACK, Magnum Foundation, Oranbeg Press, Pau Wau Publications, and Spaces Corners. Everyone enjoyed winter festivities throughout the afternoon, including music from guest DJ Stefan Ruiz and delicious cookies donated by Brooklyn baking company The Good Batch.
The occasion also marked the opening of the 2013 Paris Photo–Aperture Foundation PhotoBook Awards Short List exhibition. All thirty of the short-listed books were on display, including the two winning volumes by Rosângela Rennó and Óscar Monzón.
The 2013 Paris Photo–Aperture Foundation PhotoBook Awards Short List will be on view at Aperture Gallery until January 30, 2014.
