reading performance at 7PM with Anke Dyes, Inka Meißner, and Sveinn Fannar Jóhannsson on the opening night

Quotes about Books from Books about Books is an artists' book, an exhibition, and a library of books about books, including periodicals, journals, exhibition catalogues, zines, monographs, and artists' books spanning 1974–2025. Edited and compiled by Sveinn Fannar Jóhannsson, the project presents 148 quotes, drawn from his archive of printed matter, that reflect on the book as medium, material, and metaphor. The accompanying exhibition makes each source publication physically accessible to visitors—creating a participatory experience that mirrors the democratic ethos of independent publishing.
