Fiebre Dummy Award

Event informations

We are aware of the difficulties, both economic and of distribution, involved in the production of photobooks. That is why the Fiebre Photobook team is launching the third edition of Fiebre Dummy Award, with the aim of making the winning proposal into a photobook.

 

This year's edition is sponsored by Artes Gráficas Palermo, the co-edition by Dalpine, and the collaboration of La Troupe in the pre-press process and of Dinamo Visual Lab in the deliberation. Our purpose is to work with the best professionals in order to obtain the best possible result in the edition, production, pre-press, distribution and communication of the book.
