About the programme
PrintRoom joined the Tokyo Art Book Fair last December, presenting our own publications alongside books from past PrintRoom events. We took our time to absorb the fair, enjoy conversations at our table, and carefully select publications to share with our Rotterdam audience.
This presentation offers a small but considered slice of TABF—enough to give you a taste, and hopefully to continue feeding our programme with the inspiring work of our international family of artist publishers.
