A fun guide on how to enjoying the book fair by Darin Klein on the Hammer's blog, here.

I'm also looking forward to getting some yummy eats in Little Tokyo nearby.

This year, Printed Matter will have new limited-edition artwork by Laura Owens, Jeremy Deller, Patrick Lee and Parra to benefit the Book Fair, ensuring that it remains a free event.

Here's an interview with Laura Owens about her exhibition last year, "12 Paintings" at 356 Mission. What an amazing space. It's an interesting watch. Photos from the show below:




I first became familiar with Laura's artwork at the Drawing Now: Eight Propositions exhibit at the New York MOMA. What a difference her work was then. No less amazing, just different. On Laura's site, is a visual catalog of her work. It's interesting to see the progression.
