Self-publishing involves a diverse range of individually produced print editions and is based on independent distribution, direct contact between producers and consumers and mostly 100% authorship. Designers and artists can be authors, editors and contributors and can use media such as books and magazines to work on a range of subjects
The goal of Print Weekend is to give a platform to national and international exhibitors to present and sell their selection of print editions. This includes but is not limited to the medium of zine. We also want to find out what topics can be discovered in the printed editions made by artists and designers: Are these simply individual expressions or artistic media? Do they address social aspects? And what makes self-publishing so appealing?
