**10×10 Photobooks** is pleased to announce a new grant cycle and call for applications as part of its ongoing photobook research grants program to encourage and support scholarship on under-explored topics in photobook history.

For this cycle, we are looking for submissions related to 10×10’s recent **_Flashpoint! Protest Photography in Print_** project. In particular, we invite proposals relating to photobook history from any geography that addresses topics of protest, resistance, or social and cultural conflict from 1950 to the present. The past seventy-five years have been a time of extreme social and cultural transformations including migration, territorial disputes, gender inequity, class divisions, racism, war, and violence, environmental concerns, and other ideological and tribal conflicts which photobooks have engaged with as a tool and/or document of protest.

  
The concept of the photobook is interpreted in the broadest sense possible: classic bound books, portfolios, personal albums, unpublished books, zines, digital media, scrapbooks, posters, or other ephemera. The evaluation of proposals will consider the importance of the proposed topic (how significant and/or unknown is the subject) and the strength of the proposed approach.

  
**Grantee Expectations**

Grantees are expected to produce a presentation (and optionally a paper) within a year of the grant being awarded. Material needs to be in English. The result of the research will be presented and discussed during an online zoom event organized by 10×10 Photobooks.

10×10 will also assist where able and desired with in-progress review, identifying information, making introductions, etc. 

**10×10 Photobooks will award three grants this cycle for 2025-2026 in the amount of $2,500 each**, which will be paid in two increments during the course of the project.
