A4A at Printed Matter East Village Zine Fair

Anticapitalism for Artists will be participating in this year's Printed Matter / St Marks & 8-Ball Community East Village Zine Fair

Visit us on July 8th from 11am - 7pm at Performance Space (150 First Avenue, 4th Floor), where we'll have a table with original zines, editioned risograph + block prints, and new merch by A4A team and community members.

A4A’s table will feature… 

  • Our first self-published zine, Capitalism's Effect on the Artist's Body. Part reader, part workbook, this publication features original essays alongside study materials and somatic exercises.

  • Community member Christina Tran's zine Beyond Don't Work for Free, created as an A4A commission to discuss how artists might live into gift ecologies that resist, subvert, and go beyond capitalistic models that train us to commodify our time and labor. 

  • Risograph prints and zines from community member Megan Chin depicting co-worker solidarity and community care through acts of interconnectedness. 

  • Community member Zoe Scruggs' Plotting on Anticapitalist Futures, an editioned block print on artist-made paper showing the artist in the act of dreaming radical alternatives to capitalism.

  • Team member Kel Swensen's Organize!, an edition of woodblock print posters borne out of the artist’s involvement in student organizing efforts responding to pandemic-driven mass layoffs & austerity measures at Ithaca College. 

  • One-of-one, limited edition A4A t-shirts screen-printed on recycled materials. 

Between 11am - 1pm, EVZF will be mask-mandatory with reduced capacity to ensure that those who are immunocompromised and/or disabled have first chance to browse the fair. Masks are strongly encouraged thereafter. RSVP here to ensure entry during mask-mandatory hours.

We look forward to seeing you at the fair!
