APPLICATIONS ARE NOW CLOSED.

We are thrilled to share that Printed Matter and Miami-based EXILE Books will organize a presentation of artists’ book publishers at the 19th edition of NADA Miami at Ice Palace Studios, November 30–December 4, 2021, during Miami Art Week.

This exciting collaboration will host exhibitors featuring new work as well as historical and rare publications, accessible and DIY approaches to bookmaking, and subject matter that engages with varied critical perspectives. The onsite presentation will be accompanied by a digital platform featuring a schedule of free online programs in addition to exhibitor and publication highlights.

Exhibitors will be selected based on the strength of their submitted materials. Artists, publishers, and booksellers are invited to apply with their most recent projects. All are welcome and local Miami applicants are especially encouraged. We are able to accommodate approximately 35 exhibitors in a tented area at NADA Miami’s Ice Palace Studios. The space will allow for tables with and without wall display, and exhibitor fees will range between $500–$1200. These fees, as with all of Printed Matter Fairs, will go directly toward the hard costs of producing this non-profit production.

This event at NADA Miami is a unique opportunity for publishers to engage with a large audience of art enthusiasts and launch new projects. Printed Matter partners with a handful of art fairs around the world, allowing us to expand the reach of our mission by representing our communities near and far and sharing a broad range of contemporary art publishing with the public. We’re grateful to NADA for this kind invitation.

The deadline to submit the application is Monday, August 16, at 11:59pm EST. As noted above, space is limited. Please email fairinfo@printedmatter.org with any questions. Learn more about what NADA has to offer here.
