DIY Quick and Dirty PRINTERESTING SWAP!

Yesterday the PRINTERESTING! blog and The Print Center held a DIY Quick and Dirty PRINTERESTING SWAP, which I was lucky enough to be a part of. About 25 or so artists swapped their projects, including artists' books, limited edition silkscreen prints, photography, and more paper-based art. I was the only one there with zines, so I was a little nervous at first, but everyone was eager to trade. Photos of some of my swaps to come, but for now a few low-res photos (forgot real camera) from the event.

One of the swapping tables. I traded for an edition of the "YOU WILL DIE ALONE" print:



A selection of zines from the TEMPORARY SERVICES collective. (Many of these are also available on their site):



Yes, the toilet seat at The Print Center is even a type of printing press:



... and they have informative wallpaper in the restroom as well:


(Thanks much to Eli VandenBerg of The Print Center and RL Tillman and Amze Emmons of PRINTERESTING! for setting up the swap, as well as everyone who traded. Thanks also to artist Jen McCleary, who tipped me off to this event!)
