In an increasingly visual culture, the visual book has flourished in the publishing industry and with the greater public. TALKING PICTURES will discuss contemporary visual books, focusing on the graphic novel, the revival of children’s and adult picture books, the importance of book cover design, trends in visual cookbooks and the book-as-object. On May 29, 2018, a special panel will be held at the New York Rights Fair that will reveal a selection of books that offer an overview of excellence in visual books, without dividing them by age group or subject matter.
