Day 24 – The Miniclick Photobook Advent Calendar, 2014

December 24, 2014 by Jim Stephenson

Christmas Eve! It’s been a great year for Miniclick and we’ve got to work with some amazing new people as well as some of our regular favourites. Since it’s Christmas Eve, we thought we’d reflect on some of the zines we put out on the Miniclick Press… Way back in June this year we published five ‘zines from five Brighton based photographers. Or at least five photographers who were based in Brighton when we launched then. Kevin Meredith took us sea […]

Day 23 – The Miniclick Photobook Advent Calendar, 2014

December 23, 2014 by Jim Stephenson

Two days to go! Pretty exciting, but not as exciting as the output from Hoxton Mini Press this year – they feature behind today’s door on the Miniclick Photobook Advent Calendar… (Zed Nelson) Set up last year, Hoxton Mini Press has now published a series of incredibly strong photography and illustration books all based around East London. In addition to the content (which we’ll come on to), the appeal of their books for us is in their ethos; affordable as possible without […]

Day 22 – The Miniclick Photobook Advent Calendar, 2014

December 22, 2014 by Jim Stephenson

The final few days of the Miniclick Photobook Advent Calendar and we look at another book we picked up in Paris, from two of our favourites – Lisa Barnard and GOST… Lisa Barnard’s new book from GOST, ‘Hyenas of the Battlefield, Machines in the Garden’ is one of the most brilliantly ambitious books we’ve seen in a long time, both in terms of the scale of it’s ambition, and the depth of research and work that has gone into it. It delves into the ‘unholy […]

Day 21 – The Miniclick Photobook Advent Calendar, 2014

December 21, 2014 by Jim Stephenson

Almost there. Just four wonderful photobook filled days until Christmas and behind the door on the Advent Calendar today, Miniclick team member Joe Conway picks out the latest book from fourteen-nineteen, Daniel Shea’s ‘Blisner, IL’… Daniel Shea is an American artist, who published his book Blisner, IL this year with publishers fouteen-nineteen. It’s a pseudo-sequel to the similarly named Blisner, Ill (a photobook self-published by Shea in 2012). Both publications document the struggles of a former industrial town in the rust belt of […]

Day 20 – The Miniclick Photobook Advent Calendar, 2014

December 20, 2014 by Jim Stephenson

This year we hosted Rob Hornstra and his DIY Storytelling workshop, which was one of our highlights of the year. The incredible depth of The Sochi Project, which Rob undertook with Arnold van Bruggen, is endlessly impressive. One of the many books they published that we picked up during his workshop was ‘The Secret History of Khava Gaisanova’ and, although not technically published this year, we’ve picked it our for our Advent Calendar. Take it away Bryony Good… The Sochi Project […]

Day 19 – The Miniclick Photobook Advent Calendar, 2014

December 19, 2014 by Jim Stephenson

Earlier this year we had a Miniclick outing to the Media Space to see their new exhibition from Joan Fontcuberta, which we all thoroughly enjoyed. So much so that Bryony Good picked out his new book from MACK, ‘Pandora’s Camera’ for Day 19 of the Miniclick Photobook Advent Calendar… After visiting Joan Fontcuberta’s exhibition ‘Stranger Than Fiction’ at the Science Museum this year I became entranced with his surreal and magical approach to examining photography’s truth functions. His work reflects […]

Day 18 – The Miniclick Photobook Advent Calendar, 2014

December 18, 2014 by Jim Stephenson

One week to go! For Day 18 of the Grand Miniclick Photobook Advent Calendar (which, we need to stress again, is not a definitive list nor is it counting down to a number one), Jim picks out a favourite from AMC, their ‘Amore e Piombo’… ‘Amore e Piombo’ translates to English as ‘Love and Lead’, and so this book of images taken from the archives of Italian agency, Editorial Team Service, traces the Italian ‘Years of Lead’ – the years […]

Day 17 – The Miniclick Photobook Advent Calendar, 2014

December 17, 2014 by Jim Stephenson

2014 saw a number of photographers heading to Ukraine to document the turbulent situation, including Chris Nunn who spent time in Kalush and published his second book from the region earlier this year. Miniclick team member, Joe Conway, picked it out as a fav for Day 17 of the Advent Calendar… Christopher Nunn first traveled to Kalush, Ukraine in February 2013 to visit the hometown of his Grandmother. This visit transpired to be the first of many. And despite the […]
