A Discussion on ‘Just Don't Never Give Up On Love’ with TFBWL

Endless Editionspresents the first ever VirtualBrooklyn Art Book Fair(V-BKABF), a comprehensive online book fair dedicated to supporting independent artist publishing during the Covid-19 outbreak.Peruse the fair map to discover vendor’s tables, add items to cart with a convenient single point of sale, drop into Zoom rooms to chat with exhibitors, and enjoy interactive public programs.Since its founding in 2017, the Brooklyn Art Book Fair has worked to prioritize underrepresented and emerging artists. Inverting the typical fair model, BKABF has lowered the barrier to entry and increased visibility for small or under-resourced publishers by providing tables and space to exhibitors free of cost.In choosing to digitize the fair, rather than delay or cancel it, we continue our ongoing commitment to provide economic relief to artist publishers. With fairs being called off and storefronts closed, V-BKABF acts as a new platform to support this creative community in continuing to deliver vital cultural narratives and being equitably compensated.
