A new series of exhibition catalogs
reviving the memento of photography shows
Unique folio posters supporting indie photography exhibitions
Prior to catalog, folio was a special Subscriber+ supplement
that accompanied previous issues of Offline Journal.
Offline’s popular folio exhibition posters marked the occasion of photography exhibitions in smaller, independent galleries as a unique memento of the event. Every folio was a collaboration between Offline, the photographer and gallery, and printed as a limited edition. Each A2-size folio poster folded to A4 and featured key images from a photography exhibition along with supporting text by a guest writer.
Posters included Ron McCormick's 'How Green was my Valley'; David Hurn's 'YNISHIR'; and Dan Wood's 'Gap in the hedge'. See below for the series to date.
