Project: The Miniclick Mobile Library

February 6, 2015 by Jim Stephenson

// The Miniclick Mobile Library // Our Traveling Photo Bookshelf The Mobile Library was launched in March 2015, providing a travelling library of photography and illustration books and ‘zines and an online outlet to help market them.

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 […]
