More than 45 international photography magazines will be presented in the exhibition "Page Impressions". From September 12th until November 15th, 2015 a selection of publications, curated by Sylvia Ballhause and Markus Weckesser, will be shown at Einraumhaus c/o Mannheim. Most of the issues are made by small publishers, artists or artist groups as well as institutions like museums or universities.
The exhibition will give photography magazines, which could be described as the little sister of the photobook, its own platform for the first time. While the photobook has established itself as a photographic medium and form, which is collected, exhibited, researched and written about, the photography magazine has not gained very much attention until now. Only in recent years has this form been discovered and acknowledged as an exciting space to publish photographic works within, be they from genres as varied as documentary, fine art or amateur photography. Especially a younger generation of publishers and creatives has used the magazines to work more curatorially with images, be it their own work, that of other artists or found material. The exhibition "Page Impressions" focuses on this approach.
