Photography Publishing Across the Globe

Join us at Aperture for a special conversation between Anshika Varma from Offset Projects and Russet Lederman and Olga Yatskevich from 10×10 Photobooks, as they discuss the independent publishing scene from New Delhi to New York. 

Offset Projects is a curatorial initiative engaging with acts of reading and creation through photography’s relationship with printed matter. Rooted in South Asia, it addresses images as sites of memory, imagination, and collective knowledge-making through artist books, exhibitions, reading rooms, workshops, residencies, and public programs. Its work fosters transnational exchange while examining the social, political, and material lives of images. 10×10 Photobooks is a nonprofit, community-oriented organization that champions and facilitates thoughtful and passionate engagement with the photobook through a focus on contemporary practice and overlooked publications, stories, and creators in photobook histories.

Anshika Varma’s practice engages with images and the many worlds that reside within them. Working across image making, publishing, and curation, she investigates how personal, collective, and mythical histories shape relationships between individuals and their environments. Her work foregrounds memory, inheritance, and loss, exploring quiet materiality as vessels of identity and sites of shared experience. Central to her practice is the book, both as an artistic medium and a democratic space, one that resists exclusivity and expands access to artistic expression. Anshika’s works and curations have been part of exhibitions, festivals, and conversations at Fotomuseum Winterthur; Aarhus Museum; Lumenvisum, Hong Kong; Photo Kathmandu; and Chennai Photo Biennale. She has contributed essays and interviews to Aperture magazine, Photobooks&, 1000 Words, and the Alkazi Foundation. She is the founder of Offset Projects.

Russet Lederman and Olga Yatskevich are the co-founders of 10×10 Photobooks.

Capacity is limited, tickets are required to attend.
