Kris Graves Projects, also called KGP MONOLITH, is a Black-owned publishing house in New York. Kris Graves founded it in 2009 as a gallery space in DUMBO, Brooklyn. It expanded into publishing in 2011. It works with artists to make limited edition books and archival prints. Its focus is contemporary photography and works on paper that address race, identity, equity, gender, sexuality and class. The press prices its editions so that they stay affordable for new collectors. It has an open submission policy. Since 2025 its studio has been in Long Island City, New York.
There’s an entire city beneath New York, and Stanley Greenberg photographed it. For years, he searched for the hidden infrastructure that keeps the city alive: tunnels, shafts, gatehouses, and pipes buried far below the surface. Photography Book Spotlight
