Abstract / Summary

Photography Book Award Symposium in Collaboration with the V&A Museum.

The Kraszna-Krausz Foundation is delighted to be collaborating with the V&A to present the Photography Book Award Symposium 2023: Perspectives on Motherhood.

Framed by varying perspectives on motherhood, Gáldi Vinkó will present her work ‘Sorry I Gave Birth I Disappeared But Now I’m Back’ followed by two other 2023 award longlist and shortlist nominees, Celine Marchbank (A Stranger in my Mother’s Kitchen) and Jon Henry (Stranger Fruit). The event will be moderated by Hannah Watson, Director of Trolley Books and publisher of this year’s winning publication.

Speakers Biographies:
Andi Galdi Vinko, is an internationally acclaimed artist working in photography, based in Budapest. Her work draws visual analogies between intensely personal and intimate experiences of motherhood and womanhood and universal human experiences of coming of age, ageing, loss, and the conflict between western and eastern European ideologies.

Jon Henry is a visual artist working with photography and text, from Queens NY (resides in Brooklyn). His work reflects on family, sociopolitical issues, grief, trauma and healing within the African American community. His work has been published both nationally and internationally and exhibited in numerous galleries including Aperture Foundation, Smack Mellon, and BRIC among others. Known foremost for the cultural activism in his work, his projects include studies of athletes from different sports and their representations.

Celine Marchbank is a British photographic artist. Her practice explores the beauty and complexity of everyday life. Her work is often intimate, personal and reflective, and explores themes such as family, home, memory and place. Celine’s first book Tulip, the story of the last year of her mother’s life, published by Dewi Lewis (2016), was met with widespread acclaim including being named Photo Book of the Month by Sean O’Hagan in The Observer and Photo Book of The Week by Photo-Eye.

Her second book A Stranger in My Mother’s Kitchen, designed by Loose Joints and published by Dewi Lewis (2022), is an exploration of the grieving process told through cooking her mother’s recipes after her death.

Hannah Watson is the Director of Trolley Books and contemporary art gallery TJ Boulting. Established in 2001, Trolley Books publish a diverse range of titles presenting unique stories in photography, photojournalism and contemporary art. In particular Trolley has championed the work of many photographers often publishing their first book, including those of Adam Broomberg and Oliver Chanarin, Paolo Pellegrin, Alex Majoli, Stanley Greene, Sian Davey and most recently Andi Galdi Vinko. In 2005 Trolley Books received a special commendation from the Kraszna-Krausz Book Awards for its outstanding contribution to photography book publishing. Hannah Watson joined Trolley in 2005 and continues the legacy of its founder Gigi Giannuzzi, who died at the end of 2012. Together they founded the gallery TJ Boulting in Fitzrovia in 2011.
