Welcome to Fotobokfestival Oslo: Kindred Spirits, happening at Vega Scene from 12. - 14. September. The 16th edition of the festival is all about the book fair, a cornerstone in the distribution of both artist books and photobooks. Here we will gather publishers from Norway and different parts of Europe, who will present newly published titles and quite possibly your next favourite photobook.
The festival will also host an exciting program, including a kick-off week with our satellites, book presentations, one-on-one tutorials, a workshop, and an open photobook library and exhibition of Hong Kong Photobook Dummy Award 2025.
Fotobokfestival Oslo is free and open to all.

The Norwegian Association of Fine Arts Photographers (FFF) was initiated and established in 1974, in a time when camera-based art sought to be acknowledged as an artistic medium. FFF has since become a nationwide members' association dedicated to focused efforts for its members via art politics and art education, and through communicating the importance of art photography in Norway.
Fotobokfestival Oslo 2025 is proudly sponsored by Norwegian Photographic Fund (Nofofo), Oslo municipality, Art Council Norway and The Relief Fund For Visual Artists (BKH- Bildende Kunstneres Hjelpefond)
