Hi.

We are Void, an art-house publisher of photography books.

We pride ourselves on our independent spirit: investing in market-defying projects, self-funding the books we engage with, and compensating artists fairly.

Void is home to books that would not find a place elsewhere. Never compromising, our projects mix unique narratives with innovative design and fine experimental materials. Our hands-on dedication can be felt in every project we embark on.

Established in 2016, the project is driven by its founders Myrto Steirou and João Linneu. In the Void catalogue, you will find the debut books of photographers in their first career steps side by side with established artists such as Yorgos Lanthimos and Olivia Arthur. Despite commercial challenges, we stick to our mission of fostering young blood — having revealed so many talents and launching some of their career-defining titles.

In 2021, we became members of Futures Photography, furthering our mission to foment emerging talents.

Void is dedicated to the dissemination and accessibility of our books and their stories to worldwide bookstores, libraries and public collections. Our partner Idea Books distributes us globally. We are proud to have our entire catalogue collected by MoMA and a plentitude of our books archived in over 130 public libraries.

Last but not least, at a non-predictable timeline, we also run our book-making workshops called 'Impromptu’, which are an opportunity to share our vision of photography books with new and exciting talents.

You can read a bit more about us on Lenscratch and LensCuture.

Submitting your work

We are very keen to receive your submission. We mean it. Portfolio submissions are always reviewed (most of the time, not as fast as the artists expect). However, before you send it, you are warned: we can't reply with individual feedback. Not for lack of respect, but for the simple, physical, and sole lack of time.

Void is a small but very passionate team, formed by only three overworking members, struggling hard to deliver the best results to the projects that are already in-house. For this reason, be patient.

If we fall in love with your project, you will know it. One day. But you will.
Now, send us that PDF. We are as curious as busy.

Internship

Void welcomes applications for Erasmus granted internships throughout the year.

Interns are a part of Void’s team and work first-hand with the production of our books, as well as our educational projects. The internship of course also includes general office organization and practicalities.

We generously retribute our interns with planned support on their own photographic projects during their stay in Greece. Remote internships might be possible for designers.

Applicants must have willingness to do entry-level intern work, while being provided with unique access to the inner-workings of a publishing house. Ideal candidates have good energy, keen organizational skills, and attention to detail. Knowledge of video and photo editing software is desirable.

To be considered for an internship, please submit the form below.
