Show+Tell is an informal get together for visual artists and photographers to share their photobooks in a friendly, open environment, allowing them to receive practical feedback with the aim of realising their books’ full potential. Artists are encouraged to bring along their photobooks, whether in the early stages of a maquette or dummy, or as a finished publication, with the view of using thesebooks to stimulate group discussion amongst participating artists.
