Overview
BOP – Books on Photography – is the annual photobook festival from Martin Parr Foundation and The Royal Photographic Society, held in Bristol across the second weekend of October. The book fair is held across the Paintworks Event Space and the MPF gallery. Publishers, photographers and photobook sellers from across the UK, Europe and further afield will showcase the latest work happening in the photobook community.
