Fototreff #38 Berlin – Photography and sustainability
To what extent are holistically sustainable and, if possible, vegan production methods taken into account in publishing practice?
- von shiftbooks
In October we were invited to participate in FOTOTREFF #38 to talk about sustainability in photography together with the two guests, the artist and professor Susanne Kriemann and the freelance curator and author Lena Fließbach.
In the first part of the meeting, Lena Fließbach and Susanne Kriemann discussed Kriemann’s diverse artistic practice. They exchanged their insights into the experiences she has gained in recent years with sustainable production methods in her artistic work.
In the second part of FOTOTREFF #38, we as a publisher presented our program and deepened the discussion about the importance of holistically sustainable and preferably vegan production methods in this context.
