Publishers

Valiz is an international independent publisher and was established to respond to critical developments in contemporary art, architecture, design and photography in a broad-based and imaginative way. The driving force behind this effort is the publication of books, on our own initiative or for others. Valiz produces critical, reflective, attractive books that attempt to explore the subject in a way that is fully in tune with it and to provide any possible links with other disciplines. Roughly speaking, the programme consists of two components: theory and texts on visual culture (art theory, architecture theory, reflection on everyday images, artists’ texts) and books that are conceived and elaborated in close collaboration with artists, architects, photographers, designers and art institutes.
