„The amazing book of vernacular photography from the Fortepan archive is back from printers. One of the most astonishing photography books I have ever seen”
András Szántó, curator

Fortepan Masters was on the shortlist of Les Rencontres de la Photographie's 2022 Book Awards with 14 other excellent books in the historical book category and won the Hungarian Design Award 2022 in the Visual Communication category. In 2022 we also received the Mihály Gera award – the award is for an outstanding album presenting the most beautiful pictures by Hungarian or international authors, created in the past five years.
About the book:
The nearly seven hundred-page photo book Fortepan Masters – Collected Photography in the 20th Century – Selected by Szabolcs Barakonyi, inspired by the archives of Fortepan contains 333 Fortepan images. The images in this publication are not based on narratives and do not follow a thematic or chronological system, but rather the fine art and visual aspects dominated the selection and arrangement. The image stream is not broken by captions, we find relatively little text in the book.
