During the photobook, fair Temple Arles Books lom-of-LaMa interviewed Katrin Kamrau.

Down here a loose translation of parts of this interview into the English language:

How many works and artists are part of your program so far?

At the moment there are about 65 people involved. Some producers are present with several publications. The number of works represented might be around 85 – but I think there are a few more by now.

What criteria do you use to select projects?
Do you follow a concept regarding form or content?

A substantial link in our program is photography – photography in its wide spectrum, with a huge variety regarding approach and visual literacy.

The producers represented in our program have diverse backgrounds. We have publications in five or six different languages available. All people are connected to (Western) Europe in one way or another. As for the average age, it is similarly heterogeneous.

In terms of the appearance of publications, you also don’t find limits: They range from a single folded sheet of paper to the limited special edition in the slipcase.

Do you influence the form or content of publications being part of your program?

In terms of form or content, we do not influence the work. We are happy to assist producers during the production of their publication, but only on request. I also give workshops on book-making and the concept of self-publishing. We do offer cooperation at eye level.

With which print-run do you work?

We currently offer editions, artist books and self-published photo books. The print-run roughly varies between 10 and 1.000 copies.

How important is the personal contact with the artists for you?

The personal contact is very important for us. Together with local partners, we are also developing exhibition formats, such as kijk: papers at Warte für Kunst in Kassel or a series of talks like Tique Salon in Antwerp. It is important for us to exchange ideas and to know: Who is currently where; is doing what; is dealing with which topic — in order to make suitable offers to the single persons. I’m interested in people and their approach towards photography – thematically and media-related.
