HOW TO MAKE A BOOK WITH STEIDL
Directed by Jörg Adolph and Gereon Wetzel (2010). In German and English with English subtitles. 90 mins.

Filmed in the direct cinema style, HOW TO MAKE A BOOK WITH STEIDL observes the publisher, as he collaborates with the world famous photographers Joel Sternfeld, Robert Frank, Ed Ruscha, Jeff Wall and Robert Adams, at their studios and other places of work, in New York, London and Paris, in the Katar desert, and, last but not least, in Göttingen. Here, in “Steidlville”, their works are printed on Steidl‘s own machines, in three shifts. In goes the idea, out comes the finished book.

In conjunction with STEIDL DECK: 1001 Steidl Books (8 April to 22 May)
