10×10 Research Grants

The 10×10 Photobooks Program of Research Grants on Photobook History was established in 2020 to support the investigation of a wide range of topics around photography in print and to work to fill gaps in the history of the photobook. Each year (approximately), 10×10 issues a call for proposals for research topics – sometimes around a specific theme and sometimes open – related to 10×10’s overall mission. A jury of experts in the field reviews these proposals and selects the grantees. The grants are open to any individual (or to groups of researchers) anywhere in the world. The awardees have a year to pursue their topics at the conclusion of which they present the results of their work (in English). In many cases, the work may continue beyond the end of the grant period and we encourage such activity.
