THANKS FOR SHARING! - Zine Exhibition



What is an art zine? How does it differ from an editorial art magazine or a blog? And why do more and more artists internationally seem to be interested in this particular publishing format? For the opening weekend of THANKS FOR SHARING! we have invited artists, collectors, distributors and curators from all over Germany and Switzerland to discuss this rising interest in zines, their popularity among contemporary artists, the revival of DIY-culture with its appealingly easy implementation of ideas and potential for stylistic experimentation. Leipzig, Germany. More information here.
