Tokyo Art Book Fair Returns, Expands to Two Weeks
The 15th annual Tokyo Art Book Fair (TABF) is expanding its scope by being held over two separate weeks for the first time, featuring a different lineup of exhibitors each week. The event functions as a key platform for the global community of art publishing, focusing specifically on art books, photo books, zines and other forms of printed matter.
The fair’s “Guest Country” program this year spotlights Italy, exploring its history of independent publishing through exhibitions based on revolutionary press from 1966-1977 and Italian zines from 1978-2006, as well as a feature on the publisher Corraini. Additional highlights include an exhibition by renowned photographer Takashi Homma, focusing on refugee portraits, an archival presentation by Pace Gallery, and a special “Book Wrapping Corner” with original designs by artists like Bruno Munari.
