Artphilein Photobook Library
Photobooks and photography books
Over decades of research and selection, with particular attention to the contemporary sphere, initially Caterina and Gianfranco De Pietri and then (post-2006) the De Pietri Artphilein Foundation put together a vast collection of books both of and about photography.
From a technical room to a creative space for independent publishers.
Located in the heart of Lugano (Switzerland), Artphilein Photobook Library is specialized in independent publishing and artist’s photobooks.
