‘Baggage Claim’ (2023) at @tokyoartbookfair. ‘Baggage Claim: the return’ will be on display at @guttormsgaardsarkiv this forthcoming Saturday & Sunday 12.00-17.00. Three bags went missing!

Suitcases were filled with personal belongings, in this case artist’s books; from new commissions to archival material, in various formats and sizes, to be sold, grappled with or merely glanced at (flights of fancy!). Opening up as guerilla libraries, these trimmed trunks operated as booths within the booth at Tokyo Art Book Fair 2023. These nine trolleys traveled with aptitude (and altitude) to Tokyo and back to present their vision of what an artist’s book can be. Duty free!
