For the third edition of the festival, we have managed to invite one of the most important protagonists of the photo book scene, the American star photographer William Klein, to give his first-ever lecture in Vienna. Furthermore, today’s most sought-after photo book critic, Colin Pantall (UK) and the star publisher Michael Mack (UK) will impart some of their knowledge to an Austrian audience for the first time. Another programme focus 2015 is on the subject “Collecting Photo Books”. The prominent collectors Michel Auer (CH), Manfred Heiting (US), Gerry Badger (UK) and Andreas H. Bitesnich (AT) will participate in a panel discussion on this topic.
