Photographers, illustrators, graphic designers and artists are invited to apply until April 1 to a self–published book workshop, lead by photographer and bookmaker Nico Baumgarten from Germany. The masterclass will take place on May 3–7 as part of Riga Photomonth programme.
Nico Baumgarten has studied photography at the IDEP in Barcelona and bookbinding at the CFP Bauer in Milan. He has self–published several books and often helps others learn the craft.
