Over 200 exhibitors, ranging from artists and zinesters to antique booksellers and international publishers, tabled their wares at MoMA PS1 this weekend. Free admission was granted throughout the museum, with the book fair beginning in the courtyard and extending to the first and third floors, while other exhibitions were also on view—in particular, the 9/11 exhibition on the second floor. The sixth annual event was presented by Printed Matter, Inc., and also included several performances, talks, and book-signings.
