The London Art Book Fair - next weekend


The London Art Book Fair 2010 will take place at London's Whitechapel Gallery next weekend the 24-26 September 2010. This is an an annual event devoted to international art publishing. Hosted by the Whitechapel Gallery in association with Marcus Campbell Art Books, The London Art Book Fair presents the work of individual artist publishers, galleries, magazines, colleges, arts publishing houses, rare book dealers and distributors alongside a wider associated programme of talks and events.

Exhibitors have been selected by an advisory board comprising Marcus Campbell (rare book dealer); Tacita Dean (artist); Franz König (publisher & bookseller); Farshid Mousavi (Co-founder, Foreign Office Architects); and Soraya Rodriguez (Director, Zoo Art Fair) who have ensured that the fair includes representatives of the most vibrant, stimulating and diverse art book production. The fair will include a special preview on Thursday 23 September 2010 for booksellers, distributors, collectors, and the arts and literary press.

ABC Artist's Book Cooperative, of which I'm a member, will be one of the nearly ninety exhibitors.
