Photographers have been witness to a dizzying array of groundbreaking innovations in recent years. One of those exciting innovations is the emergence of “self-published, on demand” book printing services. You know…. Blurb, Lulu, iPhoto, MyPublisher and all those other proliferating providers as well. These books allow photographers to present their photographs in a high-quality, low-cost and professional-looking book. Let’s celebrate these books and the artists behind them. Photo+Book will be juried by Christopher Rauschenberg and four artists submitting books will be selected for Best of Show Awards.
