This weekend: Publishing as (part-time) Practice at the New York Art Book Fair

Yet again, we are very happy to invite you to a ‘Publishing as (part-time) Practice’ event; this time at the New York Art Book Fair!

Konst & Teknik & Matilda Plöjel & Iaspis are bringing an exhibition with books from 12 small-scale Swedish publishers to show at the fair; A5 Press, Andperseand, B-B-B-Books, Drucksache, GUN, Museum Paper, Nilleditions, Orosdi-Back, Tree Fruit Press, Oyster Press, Pioneer Books and Sailor Press; over 40 titles in total, as well as four of the publishers present in person.

Besides looking at some of the best of small-scale designer-run book publishing currently happening in Sweden, an extensive catalogue that brings together the exhibition with the previous seminar in Stockholm will be distributed (for free!), with essays by Sara Teleman and Andrew Blauvelt (Walker Art Center) and a keynote by Georg Rutishauser (Edition Fink). K&T&Matilda have also invited 3 international designers / publishers — Project Projects / Inventory Books (US), Markus Dressen / Spector Books (DE) and Onomatopee (NL) — to contribute a question to an interactive poster project, also shown at the stand.

A new title by our own small-scale publisher Andperseand will be shown for the first time at the fair; ‘Small Catechism for the Underclass’ by August Strindberg, translated by Jeff Kinkle and Janina Pedan. The book has never published in English before, is produced as a not-for-sale-yet edition of six hand-made books, soon to be released to a broader audience as e-book. Keep an eye at the Andperseand website for future updates on the book.
