NGV MELBOURNE ART BOOK FAIR 2026
Mountains scaled in readiness for the twelfth NGV Melbourne Art Book Fair, presented as part of Melbourne Design Week. Find us, once more, at stall 25, with several new tales, including Can we dream it? enquired the lantern bugs and The line between earth & sky.
See you there!
The Stallholder Fair, in the NGV’s Great Hall, brings together a broad mix of local and international publishers, artists, designers, and collectives working across contemporary printed matter.
Spanning artist books, zines, magazines, photobooks, small press publishing, and experimental formats, the fair reflects the full range of practices shaping the field right now — from emerging voices to established studios and presses.
Across the weekend, stallholders present and sell their work directly, offering a rare chance to engage with the people behind the publications. It’s a space to discover new projects, track shifts in publishing, and encounter approaches that sit across art, design, writing, and research.
Come ready to browse, chat, and take something home!
