Printed Matter’s LA Art Book Fair 2019

Opening night reception Thursday, April 11, 6 – 9pm; fair runs through April 14 at 6pm

Printed material has always inspired gatherings: think public squares, libraries, bookstores and even book clubs. Since 2013, Printed Matter’s LA Art Book Fair and its companion NY Art Book Fair have been the leading international forums for the distribution of artists’ books and the congregation of the art publishing community, those who create, those who consume, and all who appreciate.

This year’s Fair welcomes 390 exhibitors from more than 30 countries, featuring small press publishers, artists, collectives, institutions, galleries, antiquarian booksellers, and distributors, including the participation of nearly 100 first-time exhibitors. The weekend-long event will feature artist-led programs, including discussions, performances, interactive workshops, book signings, and special projects, offering a dynamic view into contemporary and historical artists’ publishing. You can read more about the book fair, hours and exhibitors here.
