Registration extension until May 11!

Reserve your spot for the reviewer of your choice, via the button "Registration and booking".

Become SICHTBAR X Thousandfold Photobook Fair and purchase a day of visibility at the festival center of the Photoszene Festival in the Rautenstrauch-Joest-Museum.

You buy yourself a 30-minute date with a reviewer of your choice and your presentation table for the whole day, where you can present yourself and your work not only to the reviewer, but also to the visitors of the Photoszene Festival, as well as the professionals we invited for you in the Walk & Talk - right in the middle of the festival center. The Walk & Talk is new to the SICHTBAR program this year and takes place throughout the day, alongside your 30-minute date.

There are also great prizes to be won: The reviewers and experts of the Walk&Talk all have a vote to get you on the shortlist. The work of the shortlisted photographers will be presented as a screening at the festival center for 5 days.
There are two more prizes: The Photoszene will again select a participant of the SICHTBAR, who will get the chance to feature their own work on the Photoszene Instagram account for one month. You can also win a spot at the next Thousandfold Photobook Fair.

The portfolio review is aimed at photographers and visual media artists who have graduated or are currently studying in this field, or who can demonstrate several years of practical experience. A festival brings together many players in the photography scene and visitors in one place. We look forward to you becoming part of it!
