OVER Journal Issue 5 FUTURES

Pre-Sales are now open for OVER Journal 5.

A project by PhotoIreland, OVER Journal launched its first issue in July 2020, and it has enjoyed a growing interest reaching rapidly all corners of the global market, from Zurich to Los Angeles. The publication, billed as 'The Critical Journal of Photography and Visual Culture for the 21st century' is produced with the generous support of the Arts Council of Ireland.

OVER journal critically focuses on aspects often overlooked that affect the discipline, zooming out to observe the whole scene, to analyse what exactly is happening, what power relationships are at play. It is about preventing the repetition of obsolete and flawed structures, as much as highlighting the work of those who constructively are expanding what we still call Photography into new horizons. More than a portfolio magazine, it is a space for reflection on new practices, new ways of thinking.

About Issue 5

Issue 5 presents a collaborative editorial project devised by four member organisations of FUTURES—the European Photography Platform: Fotograf Zone, Robert Capa Contemporary Photography Centre, Centre Photographique Rouen Normandie, and PhotoIreland. Together, they developed the FUTURES curatorial framework in 2025 in the name of all members, proposing the concept of Metamorphosis as a zeitgeist to explore.
