Printed Matter, the world’s largest nonprofit organization dedicated to
publications made by artists, presents the fourth annual NY Art Book
Fair, October 2-4 at P.S.1 Contemporary Art Center, Long Island City,
Queens.
The Fair hosts over 200 international presses, booksellers, antiquarian dealers, and independent artist/publishers presenting a diverse range of the best in contemporary art publications.
Philip Aarons, Chairman of the Board at Printed Matter, said: “Printed Matter's NY Art Book Fair re-establishes New York City as the heart of art publishing. This extraordinarily democratic and far-reaching project brings together ground-breaking and unique exhibitors, speakers, and events from twenty countries.”
Printed Matter presents a special exhibition of books, posters, and ephemera by Richard Prince, as well as screenings, book signings, and performances. Other events include the Contemporary Artists’ Books Conference, cosponsored with the Art Libraries Society of New York (ARLIS/NY); and The Classroom, a full-schedule of informal artist talks, performances, and screenings.
The Fair opens for previews on the evening of Thursday, October 1, 6-8 PM, followed by a Benefit. Admission to the fair preview is free, and tickets to the Benefit begin at $20. The Benefit is hosted by Deitch Studios, Long Island City and will include an evening of special events to benefit Printed Matter. Attendees can pick-up limited artist editions by Elmgreen & Dragset, Jutta Koether, Tom Sachs, and Mungo Thomson.
