Vancouver Art Book Fair
Founded in 2012, Vancouver Art Book Fair is a publishing show that takes place in October each year. It’s an informal but inspiring fair that brings together comic artists, illustrators, small press publishers and museum collectors. It has grow over the years to become a popular event. Indeed, more than 5,000 visitors attend it every year. VABF offers the opportunity for the artist book community to learn what is current, and what the future holds for this exciting art form. Members of the public can view and buy artists’ work at the fair, as well as meet and speak with the artists themselves. Additionally, a programme of talks and discussions form part of the immersive event. VABF is one of the international art fair with Art Vancouver in April.

💫 Booth in the spotlight: @candida_stevens at the @britishartfair 2023. While visiting the fair for the very first time, I came across the booth of Candida Stevens and I’ve appreciated very much its consistency. She presents the work of 4 female artists with different styles and yet United around the theme of nature. Well done Candida!

✨Follow Pauline at the @britishartfair 2023. I finally had the chance to visit this fair, which I’d heard so much about. 70 dealers from London and all over the UK are gathered at the Saatchi Gallery to present a fine cross-section of British art. Lots of paintings but not only! A nice venue for a nice art fair that you can visit until this Sunday evening.
