Artist Self-Publishers’ Fair II @ ICA, Sep 10

9 September 2016

Artist Self-Publishers’ Fair II is taking place at London’s ICA on September 10.

Following on from the success of the inaugural Artist Self-Publishers’ Fair in 2015, this year brings over seventy UK and international independent artist self-publishers for the one-day fair. The second incarnation is bigger, features artist self-publishers only, and “continues to avoid the restrictions and market dominance of much contemporary arts culture”.

The publications are considered art works, however, affordable and available, with “the ideas, images and text produced and published by artists who understand the restrictions and freedoms of the printed page”.

Artists and publishers to look out for include Ami Clarke of Banner Repeater, Cesura//Acceso, Da Thirst, Dan Szor & Racheal Crowther, Ed Lehan & Lena Tutunjian, Hannah Sawtell, Laura Yuile, Owen Piper and more.

See the ASP website for details.**

Deep Screen @ Parc Saint Léger, Mar 13 – 24

12 March 2015

Parc Saint Léger brings a new exhibition by the name of Deep Screen and running at the Pougues-les-Eaux, France art space from March 13 through March 24.

Borrowing from Paris’s National Museum of Arts and Popular Traditions (MNATP), Deep Screen explores the screens that inhabit our modern lives, overrun with computers, smartphones, and tablets that filter our reality and predominate our perception and absorption of contemporary art. The press release reads: “Far from being an apologist virtual tours , the immersive Deep Screen invites you to an experience of exposure to any materiality.”

The exhibition features thirteen different artists and artist groups, including Rachel de Joode, who we’ve written about for last year’s joint exhibition with Kate Steciw, as well as Cory Arcangel, Renaud Jerez, and Owen Piper.

See the exhibition FB page (in French) for details. **
