Portrait of Kražiai – among 30 points of view on Eastern Europe in book LAB EAST at Paris Photo

Kražių portetas / Portrait of Kražiai - LAB EAST - Paris Photo 2010

In a way it’s already in the past, but … I have not told that on Nov. 19, 2010 at Paris Photo, Europe’s largest photography fair, there was a launch of the book LAB EAST about photography from Eastern and Central Europe,

My works from series iš “Portrait of Kražiai”, included in the book was the only Lithuanian contribution  within a selection of 30 artists/photographers from CEE. The book editor Horst Kloever (Germany) has given 8 pages to works of each of the 30 photographers.

266 pages book was published by “Photeur” on the online publication platform “Blurb”.

You can order the book here.

During the book launch, the first 40 visitors not only were invited for a glass of champagne, but also were given a free copy of the LAB EAST book, that was immediately signed by a number of artists – co-authors of the book present at the event. The book launch event at Paris Photo fair was hosted at the stand of Lumen Foundation (Hungary).

A web gallery with several images I shot in between signing of books follows.
