✶ Join us for an online panel discussion with Martín Bollati, photographer María Eugenia Cerutti, and graphic designer Ricardo Báez on Thursday, May 21st, at 5pm. This conversation will be held in Spanish with English subtitles. RSVP at the link in bio.
Dedicated to boundary-pushing work, the Project Space, Penumbra’s storefront gallery, is focusing on innovative photobook publishers through the presentation of their catalogues, making their projects available to all in a reading room-style environment.
Currently on view now through June are Argentinian publishers SED Editorial and Asunción Casa Editora.
Directed by Martín Bollati, SED (
@sed.editorial ) is a publishing house with specific focus on the enigmatic characteristics of the photographical image and its mutilple possibilities of discourse. SED’s work methodology implies a collaborative development between authors, designers and publisher, building a horizontal line of work where dialogue, production and circulation of the published proyects is produced by shared responsability and means. The act of reading and its hyperlinking subject are fundamental axes of this system.
Asunción Casa Editora (
@asuncioneditora ) is an independent publishing house, led by Alejandra González and Agustina Triquell, based between Buenos Aires and Córdoba, Argentina. The project is focused on contemporary photographic practices and their various modes of emergence within the poetic-political fabric of the present. Asunción understands the publishing gesture as a collective and affective process that involves the active collaboration between artists, writers, designers and editors from Latin America.
Additionally, the Project Space is home to photobook resources such as the Penumbra Foundation Risograph Photobook Collection, book dummies from the Long Term Program: The Photobook (
@photobookprogram ), and special editions and collections from artists and publishers.
Our Project Space is open to the public. Come browse titles by SED, Asunción, and more!
Hours are Monday-Friday, 2-6pm.
