About Aliens in Residence

Aliens in Residence (AIR) is an independent publishing studio based in Brooklyn, New York, founded by photographers and photobook collectors Dino Kužnik and Arnaud Montagard. The name comes from their years living and working in the United States on artist visas as “legal aliens” (Kužnik originally from Slovenia, Montagard from France). 

AIR is dedicated to contemporary photography while staying open to other creative disciplines, with a focus on thoughtfully designed books and community-driven projects like residencies and workshops. Their aim is to build a closer link between artists and the public by sharing the vision and motivation behind the work and sparking new inspiration. (Website, Instagram, Twitter)
