Blackbook Publications is a distribution network created by and for independent publishers of Artists books.
Our aim is to collaborate with Artists that work with books that lacks distribution and to give them the possibility to find their way out to museum shops, bookstores and collectors.
Blackbook Publication grows by voting. This means that if you want to become a part of our distribution network with your planed publication, it will be reviewed by the number of Artists so far published at Blackbook. This is how we secure our artistic vision and quality.
Do you want to be a part of Blackbook?
We are constantly expanding our network and always looking for new material and wider ways of distrubuting books by independent publishers. Don’t hesitate to get in touch with us if you are interested in a collaboration.

The aim of Critical Mass, and all Photolucida programming, is to provide participants with career-building opportunities and to promote the best emerging and mid-career artists working today.
Critical Mass is a program about exposure and community. The idea is simple- photographers (from anywhere) submit a 10 image portfolio for $75. This work then gets pre-screened by a committee of approximately 20-25 great jurors and from there, 175 top Finalists are determined. These top finalists then pay an additional submission fee and their work goes on to a jury of approximately 200 of the world’s best curators, editors, and professionals who have agreed to view and vote on these finalists. From these votes, two or three photographers receive book awards and once the monographs are published, everyone who enters and reviews will receive copies of the books.
We are pleased to continue to give scholarships to pre-selected photographers by geographical region. In 2007, we gave scholarships to Polish photographers, in 2008 it was Mexico. This year, the lucky country is Italy.
As an entrant to Critical Mass, you shouldn’t necessarily expect feedback from the jurors unless they want to contact you about doing something with your work. Reviewers are given the opportunity and encouraged to provide written feedback, but we can’t guarantee anything other than:

@Paris _ mus-mus.org
Jurors: Stephen Shore and Gil Blank
Deadline: July 14th, 2009
@Paris is a return to an early and sustaining subject of photography — Paris.
As with @600 Mus-Mus will strive to use the ease and power of the web combined with the talents and camaraderie of the global photography community to develop a striking online archive of images. This time the focus is around this singular place, Paris, as seen through the vision of photographers from all parts of the world.
It is fitting that Paris, lovingly called “The City of Light” should have been one of the first and most thoroughly photographic and photographed places on earth. The list of Paris’ photographers runs from Daguerre and Nadar to Brassai, Doisneau, Cartier-Bresson and from Atget to Man Ray, Kertez and Klein and many more, a remarkable number of photography’s greatest artists made their mark ‘a travers’ Paris. Their photographs and publications have fixed in our mind’s eye a vision of Paris that is beautiful, often as edgy as elegant, and always complex.
The rules are simple:
1. submit one photograph taken by you in Paris before July 14th, 2009 (JPEG format, 72dpi, 1000 pixels larger side, Srgb Please name your file this way: SurnameName.jpg). Photo can be taken for the project or chosen from your archives.
2. include information about the date, the place and some brief statement about the photograph and its relationship to your sense of Paris.
3. certify that the submission information is correct and that the photograph is previously unpublished and that the copyright is yours.
4. Curriculum Vitae together with your website and email
5. be older than 18 year old
Please check the complete submission guidelines, technical details and conditions at www.mus-mus.org/atparis !
We look forward to seeing what you see. And thanks in advance for sharing your wonderful work and participation.
Best,
