@la maison rouge
10 boulevard de la Bastille
Paris
A new, annual fair for limited art editions of all kinds, MAD will present, over a 3-day period, a wide spectrum of contemporary styles, from zines to rare objects: prints, multiples, artists’ books, videos, audio CDs, vinyls… Co-curated by Sylvie Boulanger, director of the cneai =, and printer-publisher Michael Woolworth, at the invitation by the maison rouge, MAD is proposing three days of talks and performances, as well as the second edition of ADAGP’s Revelation Artist’s Book Award.
Much more than a fair, MAD revolves around the figure of the publisher, the most independent and versatile actor in today’s art world, taking over the entire space of the maison rouge, an institution dedicated to contemporary creation: 100 international publishers, selected for the quality of their prospectus; in an original, innovative setting designed by Roch Deniau.
For this third edition, Switzerland is the guest of honour. With the generous support of Pro Helvetia, MAD has invited a number of Swiss publishers: Boabooks, edition fink, Edition Patrick Frey, Jungle Books, Kodoji Press, Rollo Press, Sturm & Drang, Tria. A collective platform, expanded in talks and performances, that will highlight the singular ”Swiss style.”
For the third edition of MAD, Yann Sérandour will display an original edition, entitled 2011.5607249-1, and created specifically for MAD, in the entrance of the maison rouge space. Limited to 12 copies numbered and signed, the edition takes the form of a ream of 500 sheets of A4 paper, printed and wrapped by Laurel Parker under a coated cotton canvas.
During those three days, the fair will also feature the MAD TALKS program: a series of performances, conversations and panel discussions on editorial trends in contemporary art with artists, writers, printers, curators, publishers, graphic designers, dealers and collectors from around the world.
