Printed Matter Presents Sunday Zine Fair
Printed Matter has announced its Sunday Zine Fair, a special day-long event held on November 19 on the occasion of the Brooklyn Museum’s expansive survey exhibition on artists’ zines Copy Machine Manifestos: Artists Who Make Zines.
The Fair will convene more than 60 exhibitors in the museum’s pavilion and adjoining gallery space, with an emphasis on self-publishing artists and collectives, archives and libraries, and rare & out of print dealers.
Against the backdrop of the historical show, the Sunday Zine Fair will celebrate the origins of zines and honor the many important contributors to its diverse legacy, a number of whom are represented within the exhibition. A new generation of publishers working today will also present a range of styles and perspectives on the medium.
Printed Matter will also launch a new website inviting participating artists and publishers to share sources of inspiration in their practice, ultimately creating an explorable index of influence and artistic lineage.
