PHOTOBOOKS

WHO / HOW / WHY

Alena Leskova, The Road Not Taken, book presentation, Nordistica gallery, 2026
Photobooks are a remarkable material — the more you learn about them, the more you want to dig deeper. 
For us, it matters to understand what photobooks are made of, but also the market around them: how the process works, how print runs are decided for your favourite authors, who they work with, how teams come together.
We're interested in it all — celebrated books, award winners, everything that's already on people's radar, as well as first editions from authors just starting out. If you'd like your book to be featured here, write to us.

She moved between closeness and distance, sometimes observing from far away, sometimes losing all sense of boundaries. Each photograph was taken almost unknowingly, a quiet moment whose meaning became…

    The road not taken – Alena Leskova

    Structured non-chronologically, the images are not arranged to tell a story in sequence but to let different years speak to one another directly: a photograph from 2009 can sit beside one made only months ago, each altering how the other is read. In this movement across time, chronology dissolves into something closer to memory itself — associative, recursive, not entirely reliable. The book does not…
