Der Greif, founded in 2008 by Simon Karlstetter, is an award-winning organization for contemporar y photography which presents and brings together the work of various photographers and authors from around the world. Topics such as authorship, decontextualization and recontextualization, as well as appropriation are crucial to Der Greif’s approach. Contributing artists include Esther Teichmann, Roger Ballen, Yoshi Kametani and Carrie Mae Weems. Der Greif’s website demonstrates the project’s highly collaborative approach with, for example, the Guest Room online exhibition space with open submissions, curated in real- time by prominent figures from the world of photography. In addition, a weekly showcase puts the spotlight onto the work of selected artists who are featured in the print publication with a single image. During the week, these artists also blog on the website. Der Greif works with numerous institutions, galleries and other magazines.

Drittel Books is a Berlin-based, independent publisher of photography books, founded in 2013 by Andreas Gehrke. Drittel does not simply publish collections of “good photographs”, preferring instead to publish bodies or series of work that explore ideas in a deeper way. Its publications are representative of its belief in photography as a medium to reflect and influence our culture and society. The name Drittel, which is German for “one third,” is inspired by the belief that no art—or artist—can truly exist alone. The creativity, production and consumption surrounding an artwork is always split, or shared, into separate processes. Books need, at the ver y least, three people: an artist, a publisher and a reader.
