Bangkok Art Book Fair 2017
Bangkok Art Book Fair 2017 acts as an exhibition platform for contemporary art books, art print medium makers, publisher, collectors, and public audience for sharing the same passion and interests in contemporary art books together. This annual event consisted of artist's books, art, and independent publishers, art book launch, talks and lectures, workshop and art book archival exhibition. (Bangkok Art Book Fair, 2017) The event took place from September 7-10, 2017 at Bangkok CityCity Gallery, Bangkok, Thailand. This event is the collaboration of Bangkok CityCity Gallery and Studio 150 run by Piyakorn Chaiverapundech and Pat Laddaphan along with THINKK Studio acting as the brain behind the design of the event since they wanted to offer some space for people that shared the same interest in art books, publishing, printing, and design to be able to access and share ideas about print design. All the books in the event consisted of the valuable print design, as they were carefully gathered and shared in the different context of design that were all printed with same medium "book".
