The original dummy was shortlisted for the 2012 International Fotobook Festival and subsequently shown at Le Bal, Paris, and f-stop Festival, Leipzig. It was also selected for Photobookshow D in Helsinki and shortlisted for the Unpublished Dummy Award at Unseen Photo Festival, Amsterdam.

Thanks again to Markus Schaden for suggesting the unique folding structure and to Harvey Benge and to Wolfgang Zurborn for help with editing and sequencing!

100 copies, signed and numbered. € 23 plus shipping (€ 2 Germany, € 4 International). E-mail me at g.harhoff(at)gmail.com if you’re interested.

Spinnerei Leipzig, Halle 18

The exhibition space we have in Leipzig is wonderful. Yesterday we painted the walls, today I did the framing. I am not really satisfied with my prints (some of them have minor irregularities close to the bottom), but I guess I have to live with that for now.

Pelikan in Leipzig

I am very happy to announce that the shortlistet dummies from this year’s International Fotobook Festival – among them my „Pelikan“ bookwork – will travel to Leipzig for f-stop, the 5th Festival for Photography from June 23 till July 1.

Again, if you’re interested, here is a short video of the book:
