It is mostly a spiritual quest.� from "Portrait in Sepia" by Isabel Allende Image in Progress is a new international publication that wants to tell the story of the players of the image industry in its ongoing developments. Photography here is seen as a creative and artistic expression, as a publishing and advertising medium that is not just a mere representation but dares to interpret.

Target Image in Progress, whose official launch is expected in the fall of 2010, is an innovative magazine where the themes outlined above are discussed in an original way and in a manner that appeals to a demanding international audience, a group for which the art of contemporary photography is a passion, a business, a choice, a medium, a philosophy and a cult to be preserved through collections. Decision makers, trend shapers and cool hunters have long been the first to discover the most innovative, independent publications because these publications are the expression of grassroots movements. And Image in Progress is there, on the frontline, to give voice to these movements but also to give them real help through free, promotional shipment to selected professionals engaged in the world of image and potential customers and through distribution at events and fairs of kindred industries such as fashion, design and art. While statistics will be available after the third issue, Image in Progress expects 60% of its readers to be outside Europe. Moreover, its readership will be equally split between men and women (mainly aged between 25 and 45), with 70% of the total involved in what Image in Progress calls the Image in Progress Industry, with an average annual income of approximately €70,000.
