Good news 🖤 A new article about Sit+Read Artbook Fair is out—DIY publishing, zines, community and the work behind the fair.

Thank you Revista ARTA, Pop Gavril, Marina Oprea 🌱

I see the world of independent publications as another component of the art world, often easier to pe*****te and interact with.

Aftermovie 💛

Here it is — the aftermovie of this year’s Sit+Read Artbook Fair.
A small time capsule of three days filled with books, conversations, new encounters, returning friends, workshops, launches, and everything that makes this community feel alive.

Thank you to everyone who took part in the 2025 edition: artists, exhibitors, visitors, volunteers, partners, friends near and far. Sit+Read grows because people keep showing up — with curiosity, care, and a love for independent publishing.
