Poster Photo Magazine is an annual publication printed offset on glossy coated paper.

Each issue organizes the work of twelve photographers around a specific topic present in popular periodical publications: sports, fashion, automobile, travel, beauty, animals, architecture, cinema, history, and so on.

This heterogeneous exploration of approaches to modern and contemporary photography is based on a simple principle: a composition in twelve 19 × 27 inch wall posters, each folded and detachable.

The magazine promotes a multifaceted view of photography practices. It showcases the work of iconic photographers and includes the latest generation of talents, becoming a platform for criticism, editing, curating, collecting, and decorating, allowing the readers to explore aesthetics beyond its canonization.

Never have images been so displayed, allowing them to fold out of their pages, and to take over our walls, striking our retinas with their powerful resolution. By profaning the widely accepted cross-fold printing norm, the readers reconnect with the origins of the genre: posters inserted in popular publications, about football or music, motorcycles or ponies, often intended for the youth, who would then make these figures their own totems.

Issue 01 includes 12 folded posters by 12 photographers: Julia Andréone, Area of Work, Roman Cieslewicz, Stig De Block, Thomas Demand, Marie Deteneuille, Aurélien Froment, Antonio Masotti, Simon Menner, Marie Quéau, Kuba Ryniewicz, Deborah Turbeville
