Kult Books is an independent publishing project run by Janne Riikonen in Stockholm, Sweden. Kult Books publishes photography books and other lens based visual arts in monographs and artists’ books. Kult embraces personal artistic approach and visual language. The physical form of the books are of high importance to Kult and every project is designed in detail together with the artist to support the concept of the work.

KULT BOOKS

Besides publishing books, Kult Studio does freelance work related to designing and production of art and photography books, such as book design, editing and sequencing, production consultation etc. Ideally, work is done in tight collaboration with the artist to reach the best outcome. Please send your inquiry to hello@kultbooks.com.
