It’s A Book, it’s A Buzz, it’s Time to discuss.
Publication for It’s a book, 72 pages, 240 x 330mm, Offset-Print, HGB Leipzig, 2020.
The "It’s a book" takes place every year during the Leipzig Book Fair. Based on the observation that prizes and awards can reflect power structures in all areas of publishing, we ask ourselves this year: How is the discussion about quality formulated? Who is talking about what in this context and what are the criteria?

It's a book itself also organizes a book competition for students. This year, as a jury, we have dealt with our own practice of judging. Unfortunately, the jury can only examine the books as a PDF beamed onto the wall, which is not ideal. We included these circumstances in the photographic presentation of the winners in the publication.

For the photosession we placed two beamer in our Jury-office and generated a "Life-Layout".
