Mark your calendars, get your tickets, and book your plans!

Printed Matter's 2022 New York Art Book Fair is next month, and the website is up with info, exhibitors, and programs: https://nyabf2022.printedmatterartbookfairs.org

This year's fair is back in New York City proper, at 548 W 22nd Street in Chelsea. There's a free block party on Saturday night, and lots of music, signings, books, graphic design, typographic goodness and friendly people throughout the whole weekend.

"Taking place in Chelsea, just around the corner from Printed Matter’s bookstore, NYABF is the leading international event for the distribution of artists’ books, offering a platform to hundreds of artists and publishers from around the world while providing visitors with new ways to discover artists’ books and explore the full breadth of the art publishing community. 

This year’s Fair will feature many of the longstanding exhibitors and programs that have come to define this beloved event while debuting exciting new publishers and projects. Join us for our long-awaited return and explore four floors of exhibitors, plus free conversations and workshops, music and dance performances, exhibitions and artist-led programs, and our first-ever Block Party!" —PRINTED MATTER 

We'll be on the second floor if you make it to the fair. See you there!

Draw Down is excited to participate in next month's Art Book Month (sponsored by the Vancouver Art Book Fair). The calendar of events is up! Some local in BC (my mom's home province and the place where my ancestors have lived for thousands of years), some international, and some online events. Check out the full line-up: https://vancouverartbookfair.com/art-book-month/ And for our contribution, we'll be streaming LIVE from Printed Matter's NY Art Book Fair in Manhattan, October 13-16, giving followers a behind-the-scenes view of the fair. Details: https://draw-down.com/pages/art-book-month-2022 Suggestions are welcome as to what we should cover! We're hoping this will allow people who aren't able to attend to get an idea of the fair, which has been influential for so many publishers, artists, designers, and book collectors.

Attempting to dismantle and rebuild commonplace understandings of the history of writing, 'Weaving Language I: Lexicon' focuses on fiber-based forms as a longstanding but often overlooked medium for record keeping, storytelling and poetry. ⁠ ⁠ #weavinglanguage #frannycapone #frannycaponeweavinglanguage @artbookps1 #nyabf2022 #nyabf #nyabfsigning⁠ ⁠ https://www.instagram.com/p/CjxqAYzu9Hb/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

SATURDAY, OCTOBER 15 from 4–5 PM⁠ @richarddupontstudio will be signing 'Works/Writings 2000–2022' — co-published by @delmonico_books & @pamm⁠ — ⁠at @delmonico_books Booth A1 at the @printedmatter_artbookfairs ⁠ ⁠⁠ This definitive volume, spanning more than two decades, surveys the works and writings of New York-based artist Richard Dupont (born 1968), and their prescient bearing on a paradigm-shifting period of technological and cultural transformation. ⁠ ⁠ #richarddupont #richarddupontworkswritings @artbookps1 #nyabf2022 #nyabf #nyabfsigning https://www.instagram.com/p/Cjvai6-O8AX/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

TODAY, SATURDAY, OCTOBER 15, from 2–3 PM⁠!⁠ @anasamoylova will sign 'FloodZone' and 'Anastasia Samoylova & Walker Evans: Floridas' — published by @steidlverlag⁠ — at Artbook Booth A24 at the @printedmatter_artbookfairs ⁠ ⁠ 'FloodZone' is Miami-based Russian photographer Anastasia Samoylova’s (born 1984) account of life on the knife-edge of the Southern United States: in Florida, where sea levels are rising and hurricanes threaten. 'Anastasia Samoylova & Walker Evans: Floridas' is a conversation between Samoylova and Walker Evans’ photographs of Florida. Samoylova has photographed Florida on intensive road trips. Evans photographed it over four decades. Twisting the visual clichés, these two remarkably discerning observers convey Florida’s dizzying combination of fantasy and reality. ⁠ ⁠ #anastasiasamoylova #anastasiasamoylovafloodzone #anastasiasamoylovafloridas @artbookps1 #nyabf2022 #nyabf #nyabfsigning https://www.instagram.com/p/CjvIz_vsuQq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

A talk that we loved today at the @printedmatter_artbookfairs #nyabf2022 — Dissidents of the Gaze, with @marilynminter and @bettytompkinsartnew — presented by @jbebooks⁠ ⁠ At the intersection of desire, feminism, and unseen modes of representation, the works of Betty Tompkins and Marilyn Minter have ceaselessly questioned the rules of representation. Their inscrutable paintings and photographs question contemporary issues around image dissemination, particularly in this age of screens and renewed censorship. ⁠ ⁠ #marilynminter #bettytompkins #jbebooks #nyabf #nyabfclassroom⁠ https://www.instagram.com/p/Cjs9VYeLDta/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

TODAY FRIDAY, OCTOBER 14, from 4:30–5:30 PM⁠!⁠ @pomme_queen will sign 'Odd Apples' — published by @hatjecantzverlag⁠ — at Artbook Booth A24 at the @printedmatter_artbookfairs ⁠ ⁠ William Mullan’s obsession with apples began when he saw his first Egremont Russet. Fascinated by its gnarled, potato-like appearance and shockingly fresh, nutty flavor, Mullan began searching for, and photographing, rare apple varieties. In Odd Apples, each apple is lovingly rendered and styled according to its individual “personality”—a combination of its looks and its flavors. ⁠ ⁠ #oddapples #williammullan #NYABF2022 #nyabf #nyabfevent #nyabfsigning @artbookps1 https://www.instagram.com/p/CjsokCBscPw/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=
