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. More than 300 issues from 24 different countries have been submitted in response to our open call. They will be shown in the D21 galleries from 8 – 30 May. The exhibition design was developed by Sandy Hofmann, Ina Kwon, Franziska Leiste and Henrik Rossbander of the Academy of Visual Arts Leipzig, System Design class (Prof. Oliver Klimpel). Curated by Regine Ehleiter.

Exhibition Programme:

PERFORMANCE: 7 May 2010, 7 pm
