BACK TO THE FUTURE
The 8th Edition of Peckham 24 explored photography’s multi-layered relationship to history through the curatorial theme, BACK TO THE FUTURE. The artistic programme brought together diverse perspectives blending the past, the present and the future via the lens of history. Exhibitions and events showcased the work of innovative lens-based artists reflecting on themes of memory and personal histories, as well as the work of artists who take moments from the past as inspiration to re-stage, re-imagine or re-think existing narratives.

A BIGGER BOOK FAIR
The 1st Edition of A Bigger Book Fair (ABBF), which launched at the opening weekend of Peckham 24 2024, marks a new commitment to artists working with photography in print. A Bigger Book Fair has grown out of A Very Small Book Fair - a boutique gathering of artist-publishers at Biblioteka for Peckham 24 in 2022 and 2023 - and welcomed over 65 independent photo book publishers and artist self-publishers to create a dynamic takeover of the Unit 8 warehouse on the main festival site.
