On occasion of the 14th edition of TOKYO ART BOOK FAIR (“TABF”), set to be held at the Museum of Contemporary Art Tokyo from November 28 (Thu) to December 1 (Sun), Miss Read Posters from 2009-2024 will be shown.
MISS READ: The Berlin Art Book Fair & Festival 2024 takes place annually in Berlin. In 2024 it hosted over 340 exhibitors from more than 50 countries, consolidating its position as one of the largest and most diverse global art book fairs with an unparalleled breadth of international representation. Founded in 2009, MISS READ is dedicated to building a community and creating a public meeting place for discourse around artists’ books, conceptual publications and publishing as artistic and political practice.
A new poster of Miss Read is created every year by another artist: Miss Read posters have been created by Aziza Ahmad, Natalie Czech, Maira Fragoso Peña, Karl Holmqvist, Åse Eg Jørgensen, Achim Lengerer, Michalis Pichler, rakete/Erik Steinbrecher, Jay Ramier, Cia Rinne, and Lawrence Weiner.
Besides posters, the exhibition “MISS READ posters &, from 2009-2024" will feature a handful of video interviews conducted by Miss Read with protagonists in the field of publishing as artistic practice, and also books published by Miss Read. Among them will be "Decolonizing Art Book Fairs" and "Publishing Manifestos", part of which is being translated in Japanese on the occasion of Tokyo Art Book Fair 2024.
