Photography is regarded as the guiding medium of our time. Yet there is barely any debating and disputing culture CONCERNING photography, as is a matter of course in literature, music, film or theatre. Affectionately and well-meaningly one moment, meanly and maliciously the next, and drawing inspiration from the “Literary Quartet”, Damian Zimmermann (Photoszene), Markus Schaden (The PhotoBookMuseum), Wolfgang Zurborn (Lichtblick School), Oliver Rausch and Frank Dürrach (both Fotoakademie-Koeln), along with an alternating guest, discuss four photobooks, live and in front of an audience. The events are recorded by FotoTV and then put online. The Fotobuch-Quartett+ is a format of Internationale Photoszene Köln: the first event took place as part of the Photoszene Festival 2014 at the Museum of Applied Art (MAKK); after that the Fotobuch-Quartett+ was a guest at the Kunsträume der Michael-Horbach-Stiftung, at the Forum für Fotografie, at the Zephyr in Mannheim and during the Cologne Art Book Fair 2015.
