Photography From Yemen, Ibi Ibrahim and Lizzy Vartanian

Photography From Yemen presents 14 contemporary photography artists from Yemen, the first ever survey of contemporary Yemeni photography. Featuring artists working both inside Yemen and in diaspora, this book not only includes a presentation of each artist’s work, but also allows them to speak about their practice in their own words.

Featured artists: Abeer Aref, Afraa Ahmed, Ahmed Alabbadi, Amr Attamimi, Arif Alnomay, Asim Abdulaziz, Boushra Almutawakel, Hanan Ishaq, Ibi Ibrahim, Saber Wasel, Shaima Al-Tamimi, Somaya Samawi, Thana Faroq, and Yumna Al-Arashi.

Photography from Yemen is the debut publication of Makan Press; an artist-run photo book publisher that aims to support the work of immigrant artists and those from countries of conflict and beyond. Makan Press was founded by Yemeni visual artist Ibi Ibrahim.
