The NY Art Book Fair is the leading international gathering for the distribution of artists’ books, celebrating the full breadth of the art publishing community.
a/b Books was founded by swiss artist Alexander Bühler focusing on self-published and limited edition projects. These include the works of different artists, who are also working within the book form, as a medium to explore new ideas and as an extended platform for communication.
Endlich ist es soweit und unser Onlineshop* mit den ersten Editionen «Die Welt vor 100 Jahren» ist ON, auf handgeschöpftem Papier von Cartalafranca und der Basler Papiermühle.
Vernissage – New collection Karo #03 / Johannes Meiner (1867-1941) Zürich, curated by Ylva Meyer, photographs from the Baugeschichtliches Archiv der Stadt Zürich.
Sometimes some works require a much longer reflection on design than others in order to always be able to offer you absolutely unique pieces. “Rotms_zur_3” by Alexander Sporre, produced by blackprint edition, is an example of this.
A private collection of antique photographs on glass,
which opened the desire to show these 150 year old photographs in a new but coherent manner and therefor in
limited series, has materialized in the self-published project blackprint edition.
