Rim Books
Rim Books is an artist-run, artist- and author-focused publishing venture established in 1996 in Auckland, New Zealand, by the photographer Haruhiko Sameshima. It produces and promotes publications of photographic art, applied arts, art history and exhibition catalogues, and its stated approach is to keep the artist's original vision intact while supplying editing, design and production support. Its site's tagline is publishing out on the rim.
