“Photofile is the one journal of contemporary photography that I always read. It consistently publishes the most innovative visual ideas in the medium and has put itself ahead of the pack.” Graham Howe, Director - Curatorial Assistance Inc. California
Since 1983 the Australian Centre for Photography has published Photofile – Australia’s first publicly funded journal of photography. The magazine is a vehicle for national debate and new writing around photography. Photofile quickly grew into a significant Australian magazine with both national and international distribution. It remains Australia’s leading journal of photo-based art practice, taking its place alongside such acclaimed overseas journals as Katalog and Camera Lucida.
Photofile provides representation, promotion and analysis of current practices in Australian photo-based art, ranging from documentary through to new digital technologies and including non-narrative film, video and computer-based work. Coverage is structured around longer essays, portfolios of artists’ work, short texts and reviews. Photofile is committed to critical writing that is historically and theoretically informed, presented in a stimulating and accessible way.
