ArtsLibris 2025
By Charlotte Stace
Established in 2009, ArtsLibris is an international hub for artist books, photobooks and self-publishing, with a strong focus on contemporary thought and visual culture. Each year it hosts three flagship fairs in Barcelona, ARCOmadrid, and ARCOlisboa, drawing together an impressive range of publishers, artists, and cultural institutions from Europe and Latin America.
The Barcelona edition, held at MACBA, combines a marketplace with exhibitions, performances, debates, and curated projects. The lineup features both established and emerging publishers, offering a unique chance for you to discover limited edition works, experimental publications, and rare artist books.
Beyond the fairs, ArtsLibris maintains a permanent bookshop in Barcelona in partnership with RocioSantaCruz Gallery. So, if you’re a fan of art publishing and all that it involves, then this is one event that you definitely need to put in the calendar.
