Eye Witness : LA Art Book Fair 2015
Eye Witness is a new feature that is about less talk and more action. It’s first-hand reporting from the trenches, eyes open and cameras at the ready. Our inaugural post takes us to Printed Matter’s LA Art Book Fair, a tremendously popular annual event at the Geffen Contemporary at MOCA in Downtown Los Angeles. It is a simultaneously inspiring and exhaustive experience, and this year did not disappoint. Enjoy.
