Printed Matter 40th anniversary



To celebrate their 40th anniversary, Printed Matter announced a Spring Membership drive today:

"Help us celebrate 40 years as the world’s leading nonprofit dedicated to artists’ books. Our wonderful new storefront and offices on 11th Avenue, our increasingly robust schedule of exhibitions, publications, and events, and the NY and LA Art Book Fairs, are a testament to Printed Matter’s vision and growth. We now proudly represent 5,000 artists and distribute 40,000 publications and related materials annually. We’ve come a long way, and with your help, we can do even more.

Help us mark our big anniversary and usher in our next 40 years of service by becoming a Printed Matter Member. New Members at the Friend level or higher receive a 10% discount on most purchases in-store and online, a book or edition with a special connection to our history (listed below), discounted entry to the NY and LA Art Book Fair previews, special promotions, invitations to Members-only events, and an exclusive 40th anniversary tote bag that replicates Louise Lawler’s 1986 design for Printed Matter’s last comprehensive mail-order catalog. We are also offering joint benefits with cultural partners like the EFA Robert Blackburn Printmaking Workshop, NADA and Artforum."
