Join Delphine Bedel for a two-day self-publishing workshop conceived for photographers, artists, designers, writers, and students interested in publishing their own book or becoming (self-)publishers.


During the first part of the workshop, Bedel will present her feminist methodologies to develop a publishing project, as well as an overview of contemporary publishing practices in art and design. From concept, design, editing, sequencing, production, and distribution, this session will cover various self-publishing models, modes of distribution, as well as feminist and intersectional methodologies in publishing.


For the second part of the workshop, the focus is on the participant’s own publishing projects and ideas, providing tools and insights to kickstart their project.
