Magazine

dienacht Magazine is a printed Magazine for Photography, Design and Subculture. Photography is the main topic, but 1-2 Illustrators, Graphic Designer, etc. are featured, as well as articles about underground movies and music and photo book, fanzine and magazine reviews.

dienacht likes to see and publish strong, timeless photography. It’s not about showing the most recent series or bodies of work. All kind of photographic genres are showcased in the magazine, except for fashion photography.

dienacht is published once /twice per year, in a limited edition of 1000 numbered copies, in English and German. The latest issue was published in 2017.

dienacht is not only a magazine. Single and group exhibitions took place during the last 5 years in different cities in Germany and Luxembourg, showing artists featured in dienacht, guest lectures and talks were hold at universities, colleges and photo festivals.
