The fourth Leipzig Photobook Festival is dedicated to the theme of “Intimate Framworks”. On the one hand, intimate structures refer to personal relationships on various levels – or the lack thereof; on the other hand, a tight-knit community, a village, is also such a social structure.

The Festival is organized by @dienacht.verein in cooperation with HALLE 14, Centre for Contemporary Art
