Kunstverein Munich
Kunstverein Munich, Andrea Francke & Eva Weinmayr, London, invite you to join us for a workshop, which will discover and connect independent publishing practices, distribution activities and potential resources in Munich and elsewhere.
The workshop will give the tools for a self-led publishing practice leading to a publication, which will map existing independent (publishing) practices in Munich. The workshop includes site visits to publishers, artists, archives as well as seminars, workgroups and breakfasts with guest lecturers from Munich and abroad: Stephan Dillemuth (Publikationen der Zeit), Ingrid Scherf (Basis Buchhandlung/Das Blatt), Sara Käsmayr (Raubkopierbuch), Philip Gufler (Archiv Forum Sexualität München), Ruth Höflich (independent publishing and visit to print workshop Höflich), Marcel Mars (Memory oftheworld.org) in collaboration with Florida, Hamman von Mier (independent publishers), Anna McCarthy (Nein – Platform Munich) and a tour to Copy Shop Unikopie.
Come to expand and exchange your knowledge, meet other people and contribute to the publication. The workshop takes place in the Piracy Collection Reading Room, which will be open to the public at Kunstverein Munich. Many thanks to Akademieverein München and Erwin-und Gisela von Steiner Stiftung for generous support.
