Bound Art Book Fair 2025

the modernist returns to the Bound Art Book Fair at the Whitworth Art Gallery.

the modernist society will once again be exhibiting at the Bound Art Book Fair this year on the weekend of 25-26th of October and we have plenty of new publications to show you including Quiet Light - Gunner Gu's evocative photographs of empty streets of modernist Manchester. We'll bring books an architecture and design and our ever-popular calendar by Steve Marland. These will be on sale alongside our quarterly magazine and plenty more photobooks and zines that we have published over the past year or so - and we might even bring a badge or two.

'Bound Art Book Fair is the North’s biggest and boldest annual event for arts publishing returns to the Whitworth Art Gallery, Manchester. This year Bound welcomes over 90 artist publishers, collectives and small presses to share their work alongside a free public programme of talks and events focusing on ideas of gathering and congregation. Our free public programme explores the critical and creative capacities of dancing, altered states, collaboration and collective joy, from raves to LAN parties, sacred rituals to mosh pits, high school proms to UFO clubs.'
