After looking through literally more than two hundred new
photobooks published in 2013, here are the handful that stand out from the
crowd for the editorial team at LensCulture.
The selection is quirky, subjective, untraditional, and probably not like many
other lists of favorite photobooks out there. They range from super-large-format
mainstream books to small hand-assembled artists books, from straightforward to
obscure. But all of them are gems, in our opinion.
We hope you enjoy looking through this selection. Cheers!
