UPCOMING
Local (Art) Book Market |
This time, IACK will be holding a micro art book fair called "Local (Art) Book Market," which will feature independent artists and spaces.
The Local (Art) Book Market is an event that considers art books as a broader form of culture, and aims to make the art book fair, which is the cornerstone of culture, more accessible. It will be an opportunity for creators to deliver their works directly, and for visitors to experience art book culture in a more expansive way than ever before through interaction over the tables.
This is the third time we are holding this event, and in addition to Ishikawa Prefecture-based "CYRO", "IACK", "Keijiban", and "NN",A fictional store that specializes in natural wines,Wine and hot coffee will also be provided by Ito Shoten.
The event will be held to coincide with the first business day of the new year, so please take advantage of this opportunity.
