What is an art book fair? Why are they important? And how do they inform small publishers and their practice? As art book fairs proliferate across the globe and self-publishing is recognized as an art form of its own, it’s no wonder that many people are curious about this niche world that seemingly only special collections librarians were aware of.
As part of the 2024 Pittsburgh Art Book Fair, please join PABF co-director Caroline Kern (Pegacorn Press) as she discusses everything art book fair related with Adriana Monsalve (Homie House Press), Clare Lagomarsino (Combos Press) and George Wietor (Issue Press).
The importance of fairs within small publishing, the community-building aspects, each panelist’s personal experiences within this world, and the nitty gritty details of navigating and thriving within art book fairs will be discussed. There will be time for Q&A at the end of the conversation.
