Last year, we initiated a new project planned take place during HALFTONE Print Fair, focusing on the printed matter that is the book. It is Tsundoku, and this year returns with an exclusive showcase of photobooks shortlisted for the Fotobook Festival Kassel Dummy Award and the Australia & New Zealand Photo Book Award.

Running 5 Nov-6 Dec
At The Library Project

This year, a total of 395 Photobooks from 44 countries were sent in to the 2020 Kassel Dummy Award. The selected shortlist resulted in 47 Photobooks, with 3 winners to be selected by an international jury at a later date. The winner of the First Prize will be produced and published. The shortlisted dummy books are exhibited inKassel and at other partner international photo events, including PhotoIreland Festival. Due to the COVID situation this year, we were not able to exhibit it during the 2020 festival in July, but are glad to be able to bring them back to Dublin this November!
