PUNCH is a photography book by Jürgen Bürgin.

The book is an intimate and revealing journey into the world of boxing in New York, Berlin and Lisbon.
It’s an immersive and dark visual narrative that follows boxing fighters and clubs from the training and preparation phase to the thrill of the fight, and the moment of victory. A dramatic, evocative and emotional look into the vivid details of a classic sport, whose enormous influence on popular culture grants this work a universal and timeless appeal.

The presentation featured Jürgen Bürgin (photographer and author), Mariana Veloso (designer) and Yuri Lopes Pereira (publisher).

The classic film Raging Bull, by Martin Scorsese, was screened after the presentation.
