Book Signings

Throughout the three days of the fair, a dedicated program of book signings will also create unique opportunities for meaningful exchanges and engaging encounters between artists and visitors.

Sound Programme

New Dimension’s Ben Goulder will curate a sound programme for Offprint London, bringing together international friends and collaborators, including BOOT MAG and VieImprint.
Moving between aural pleasure and pain, the programme will extend the fair’s atmosphere beyond the page through a resonant selection of sound, interference and low-level seduction.

Live Printing

Relic by RRose Editions and artist Lucy Helton

This edition of Offprint London features Relic, a project by RRose Editions and artist Lucy Helton. The installation uses multiple analogue fax machines to print book pages live. Fax machines can be seen as relics—potential technofossils, or human-made objects that may eventually become embedded in the Earth’s geological record.

The thermal prints generated during the event will be compiled into a collective artist book, published in a limited edition by RRose Editions and made available to Offprint visitors.

The project includes contributions from artists Adam Basanta, Santiago Martinez Benedetti, Antony Cairns, Susan Collins, Stewart Hardie, Julie F Hill, Aspen Mays, Marcel Schwittlick, Travess Smalley, Claire Strand, Jaime Sebastian Vera, Corinne Vionnet, and NASA Archive Mars 2020. Their works relate to themes such as photography, technological relics, and image transmission.

The resulting book brings these works together with Lucy Helton’s own, forming a conversational structure through conceptual text, shared ideas, and exchanges between the contributions.
